    If you see the screen shots, product was cleared to be modified by manufacture and encouraged. The failure wasn't from the cerakote. I'm getting there.

    OP, once you go down the route of a custom application, all bets are out the window. I wouldn’t give you a dime, especially since it came pre-lubricated from the manufacturer. A coater is going to completely degrease before shooting cerakote (I know, I’ve done it) and if they didn’t re-lube, your beef is with the coater. This thread is bad form.

    It's like buying 4 new tires, taking a knife to the sidewall of each of them, and then complaining that BFG makes garbage tires.

    OP, don't put this on the vendor. You modified the product and screwed up in the process.

    Instead of posting screenshots, write it out in a concise manner. Then use the screenshots as proof that it happened the way you say it did?

    Sounds like brokeded it. Sorry that you’re a broke college student, but use this as a learning experience.

    You chose the vendor so this is on you. If you're going to blame anybody, it's your ceracoater, but really, you simply didn't do your due diligence.

    When you buy something to modify, get it in your hands, install it to confirm fitment, and then send it off for modifications.

    This is your mistake.

    You mentioned that inner core was cerakoted.

    "and yes the inner core is also cerakoted,"

    Once it was in your possession and you decided to “customize” it’s on you. On page 1 he posted a reply talking about reimbursement but said you denied. This thread is Nothing but drama. :locked:
