IIRC, CZ Custom can do Polycoat finishes.

there are options if you want something other than poly - nitride, hard chrome, DLC, etc

Isn’t polycoat the CZ version of cerakote? Or is polycoat more durable...?

I had CZ Custom redo the poly coat on an SP-01 Tactical.  I was very pleased with the results.

polycoat is an electrostatically applied powder coat. I don't believe Cerakote is applied that way (just spay on).

I think Polycoat is a tad better than Cerakote.  It IS different.

Not trying to hijack the tread, but can you provide recommendations for DLC finish?

I haven't sent anything out for refinishing and Birchwood Casey cold blue touch-up doesn't really count as a refinish job.

I have a CZ27, WWII vintage. It has pitting on the slide. Any way to repair that, filler maybe?
