    Duracoat Start Up

    Hey guys, I was hoping on getting advice on what I should get to start Duracoating my guns. Right now, I'm looking to work on a Remington 870. I was hoping to keep the prices low, but I know this is a quality product so I'm willing to spend what it takes. What should I get to start up? Thanks guys!

    Patience, elbow grease, depending on condition wet and dry paper 400 and up, small spray gun, a compresssor large enough for the spray gun (although some people use cheap disposable airbrushes, I wouldn't), Duracoat and place ventilated enough not to get a major free high from Duracoat or separate air supply.

      I would suggest that you hit up Technique for advice.

        I used a $10 harbor freight airbrush and my automotive compressor. Gun came out nice. You dont need the reducer. Definately use a mask the stuff smells terrible.

          I also used a HF cheap airbrush. Came out really nice. I didn't use much reducer. I think it depends how hot/cold it is though. Was a very easy process as long as you keep it clean.
