When correctly applied, cerakote won't cover up deep engravings or change the accuracy of your gun. And while powder coating is just 1 mil thicker than cerakote, we'd never comfortably prescribe a powder coat to any firearm. As it turns out, that 1 mil totally matters.
DuraCoat is permanent. With normal use, a firearm finished with DuraCoat will last several lifetimes.
Cerakote® is a ceramic polymer based proprietary formulation that offers industry-leading durability, hardness, scratch resistance, corrosion resistance, flexibility, heat, and chemical resistance.
Cerakote and similar ceramic coatings have several desirable physical qualities that make them ideal for firearms. The provide a hard, durable finish which is resistant to wear, corrosion, chemicals and impact damage. They improve lubricity, which means there's less friction between moving parts.
Ceramic coatings will give you the most durable finish possible on a firearm. *While extremely durable, any coating can wear at metal on metal contact points, deflectors for instance. Not Suitable for springs and optics (due to oven cure).

Q: Does Spray Paint Hold up on Guns? It all depends which type of spray paint you choose. If you go for a coating designed for use with metal surfaces that has environmental protection, it should hold up pretty well. This said, aerosol spray paints are no match for coatings applied with a paint sprayer.

I have an old revolver that now looks almost new. I took off some surface rust and old bluing with very fine sandpaper (we used to call it "emery cloth").
With Oxpho-Blue, all you need do in most cases, is dampen a piece of cotton flannel and give the area a good rubbing. The chemical goes through the oil on the gun, removes thin rust and blues the steel underneath. No after-rust. Absolutely no after-rust. Phosphate-like surface forms under the blue.
