sorry the silicone is 4 acetone/1 pc

You only need two coats with the silicone PC,the curing/baking is minimal stanky.

are you using the high temp silicone PC?

closer 4 to 1 Acetone

Whizzer, I do it in my detached barn with one of the doors open. It's STANKY,but not to bad.

It's Bronze. the florescent lights and the camera are not that good.This stuff really covers well!

I forgot to mention. I use the Piglet Method ,the first coat covers the bullet completely. The second coat is really in case I missed any spots.I don't use any elaborate grating, just aluminum pan...

I'm pretty sure that when someone figures out Tensile(pressure)and elasticity(centrifugal force) for a cast rifle bullet,a coating will be found to to meet the spec. These silicone PC's meet temp and...

The one thing that really impressed me was the two coat process.The one I used was brushed bronze.The product actually sticks to the bullet.I am going to try a single coat. Cure is 20 Min @ 425 Deg...

Probably some of the Bullet coaters in Aus, and Europe already use these products.. Accuracy based on sizing. I'll keep looking for the negatives.Coefficient of friction considerably less than...

Silicone has a lower coefficient of friction than polymer. This should give better FPS,we'll see when I get it.

It's a silicone based Powder coat. Because it is silicone based it has a higher working Temp than traditional epoxy polymer powder coat and a lowed coefficient of friction.In our application I think...
