It works ... not as good as baked Cerakote but works. Duracoat is the most popular cold set. Cerakote makes a cold set too and it’s on par with Duracoat. I think the “C” series from Cerakote is the air-cure but you’ll need to check their site to make sure.
If you’re setup with blast media, spray and ovens, mix your color as directed by Cerakote and spray test materials and bake as directed. If you’re making a custom color, then mix up two or three different colors that look similar and test in the oven on scrap pieces.
Once you get your color right, sandblast your gun, degrease with acetone, then get to work. It’s pretty simple overall but like any process, it takes practice to be good.
I didn't know you could even do it without heat ...is that worth doing?
