This process involves a thorough cleaning and inspection of the firearm, and the exterior finish of your choice. Refinishing makes a quality handgun, rifle, or shotgun more desirable and ultimately, more marketable. We’re sorry, but we no longer reblue firearms.
Polishing
The firearm is completely disassembled, professionally cleaned and inspected, and its exterior polished to remove stains and minor surface scratches, leaving a shiny finish.

Parkerizing
This is an extensive process that coats your gun’s metal parts with a protective finish. Your firearm is completely disassembled, professionally cleaned and inspected, degreased, bead blasted, cooked in a Parkerizing tank, and coated in zinc phosphate. The result is a military style, dark gray, non-glare finish, that is highly resistant to corrosion, very durable and long wearing, and will become even more attractive over time. Your firearm may experience slight variations in the shades of the Parkerized metal parts that make up your gun. This is caused by the metal’s purity and hardness. Generally, the purity of the steel parts determines the shade of gray. Some metals, including stainless steel and aluminum, will not take the Parkerizing process, so these parts are given alternative, durable, matching finishes.

"Holt-Fire" Coating
Our most durable, corrosion resistant, and longwearing finish. Your firearm goes first through a rigorous cleaning and inspection and then through the Parkerizing process. The gun is then coated with your choice of either, DuPont Teflon/Moly finish or a Baking Lacquer.
Teflon/Moly Gun Finish is an ultra-modern, thermo-set, spray-on, self-lubricating coating, chemically bonded to a phenolic-epoxy base so it’s highly resistant to scratches and abrasion. Because the finish is baked on, you get some extra benefits. As the metal heats, its pores open allowing the Teflon component to penetrate. On high-wear areas, like slide rails, the coating will eventually wear away but the Teflon will still be in the pores, lubricating and protecting. Plus, dense colors won’t lighten, dissolve or break down under all common gun solvents.
Baking Lacquer is an amazingly tough, scratch-resistant, oven-cured professional gun finish that will improve the looks, value, and durability of any firearm or part. Baking Lacquer is impervious to corrosion, water, sweat, solvents, chemicals, trichlor, and bore cleaners. Highly resistant to nicks, scratches, abrasions and wear marks. We offer digital camouflage pattern in the color combination of your choice for an additional $35.00. This process can add incredible value and desirability to your firearm, not to mention making your gun look really cool.
Gun-Kote is an ultra-thin, friction-reducing coating that lasts and lasts. It provides a durable finish that will not break down, peel or dissolve. In fact, once it is applied, the only way to remove Gun-Kote is to abrasive blast the part. It is resistant to all known gun solvents and thinners. Each coat is approximately .0004" thick so Gun-Kote can be used on both internal and external parts where a close-tolerance fit is required without having to worry about interference. This makes Gun-Kote the perfect, maintenance-free coating for handgun slides and frames, shotgun receivers and magazine tubes, rifle actions and bolts, anywhere you need an ultra-thin, self-lubricating, permanent coating that protects and wears like crazy.
