Urban gray cerakote?
« on: June 06, 2017, 08:11:34 AM »
Thinking about getting an urban gray slide milled for a red dot.

Anybody know how to fix the color on the milled part? Cerakote? Who knows the formula?

So, nobody has milled or repaired an urban gray slide or frame yet?

Bumpng this up cause I have the same question. I'm getting the slide from my Urban Gray frame milled for an optic, so it needs to be refinished. Anyone have suggestions on a nice color to do it in?

Get a gray to match the frame?
Keep the original black?
Something else?

Well, probably not what you have in mind, but I've been quite taken with this:

I may send off one of my UG P-07 lowers for that treatment :)

Thanks for the links guys, but those are all cerakote jobs on the frame. I'm looking for a cerakote color to refinish the slide after milling

Nothing stopping you from having the same done to the slide ;-)

If I was sticking with a solid color, though, I'd keep it black, preferably nitrided...
