At FDA Coatings we guarantee that our work is good to go. We put a 1 year warranty on everything we do. There are certain areas of high impact and heavy traffic that we cannot guarantee, places such as the top of a pistol barrel chamber. The top of the pistol barrel cams underneath the slide and will always rub where there is constant metal on metal contact. Controls and pins take a lot of repetitive use and under large amounts of traffic, commonly hit and pushed, they cannot be guaranteed. A charging handle is another place that sees large amounts of use, they generally do pretty well but do start rubbing off if they have sharp edges on top of the grooves.
We will happily discuss any wear on one our products and if we think it is wearing abnormally, even if it is a high risk area we will take it back and fix it. Message us any time with questions or concerns we are here to help. With Stencils the coatings are layered multiple times, so when there are stencils used customers must expect some variation on thickness and some slightly raised edges where colors change.
Optics are a product that we will Cerakote for our customers to add to a fully custom finish, but we do not guarantee that they will not wear in places. Optics are often expensive and delicate, therefore we refuse to put them in the sandblasting booth. We hand sand them and degrease them before applying Cerakote. We have yet to see a scope come back in for service, but because we cannot prep them up to Cerakote standards we cannot guarantee them.
The Lifetime Warranty upgrade covers the coating for the life of the firearm. For a $75 upfront fee we will touch up or repair any issues with the coating. This does not cover careless wear or drops where there is visible metal damage. Also cleaning needs to be done with care, Cerakote is very durable but will not stand up to hard wire brushes, sand paper, and tools, you will scratch it. If you do want something touched up you pay the shipping and box up the firearm and send it to us, we will pay the return shipping. If a Lifetime warranty firearm wants to be recoated it will be done for a 50% discount (Please note, if there was laser engraving or stippling done, that cannot be undone).
When our work is completed in the shop we will send 4k HD pictures for approval, if the pictures are approved the firearm is finished, there can be no changes or modifications. When you receive the firearm and start touching you may notice small things or edges in the coating from stencils. These items are all hand painted and finished, small parts, logos and artwork cant be 100% exact when we are working with hard edges, sharp corners, ridges, and at a much smaller scale. We do our best to get our work to 100% and promise that if we don't like it we don't send it back. You will never receive a firearm back that doesn't meet our standards 100%.
If you have any questions Comments or concerns please message us and we will be happy to work with you right away.
