At Arrowhead Survival, we provide expert Cerakote firearm finishing services to protect and personalize your firearms. Located at 720 Capital Circle NE, Suite G, Tallahassee, FL 32301, our certified technicians apply durable, corrosion-resistant coatings that extend the life of your equipment while giving it a custom look.
Cerakote is a ceramic-based finish that shields your firearm from wear, moisture, chemicals, and impact. Whether you own a daily carry pistol, hunting rifle, or competition shotgun, our coating services help maintain performance and appearance for years to come.
Cerakote is a thin-film ceramic coating designed specifically for firearms and metal surfaces. The formula creates a protective barrier that outperforms traditional finishes like bluing, Parkerizing, or standard paint. It resists abrasion from holster wear, prevents rust in humid environments, and withstands exposure to cleaning solvents and lubricants.
The coating reduces friction between moving parts, which improves function and extends component life. It also provides chemical resistance that protects against corrosive ammunition and environmental factors. For Florida gun owners, this matters. High humidity, salt air near coastal areas, and frequent temperature changes create conditions where standard finishes fail.
We start with complete disassembly of your firearm. Every component receives individual attention to ensure proper coverage and function after coating. Springs, pins, and internal parts that shouldn’t be coated are set aside. Surface preparation includes media blasting to remove old finishes, oils, and contaminants. This step ensures maximum adhesion and long-lasting results. We inspect each piece for damage or wear that needs attention before coating.
Application happens in a controlled environment. We apply thin, even coats and cure each piece in our oven at precise temperatures. This process creates a hard, durable finish that bonds at the molecular level. Most projects receive two coats for optimal protection. After curing, we inspect every piece, reassemble your firearm, and perform function checks.
You receive your firearm ready to use, not requiring additional break-in or preparation. Turnaround time typically runs 2-3 weeks depending on current workload and complexity of your project. Rush service available for additional fee.
Our inventory includes the full H-Series, C-Series, and specialty colors from Cerakote. Popular choices include tactical blacks and grays like Graphite Black, Sniper Gray, and Tungsten. Earth tones remain favorites, including Flat Dark Earth, Coyote Tan, and OD Green. Bold colors like Crimson, Blue Titanium, and Armor Black create distinctive looks. Specialty finishes include NRA Blue, USMC Red, and Bright White. Can’t decide? We provide color samples and can show examples of previous work to help you choose the right finish for your needs.
