Cerakote for Louisville, Kentucky Gun Owners

Louisville gun owners bring slides, frames, uppers, and complete rifles across the river to our Greenville, Indiana shop for Cerakote. We are a factory certified Cerakote applicator, and every job is done in house by appointment. We do not operate a Louisville storefront.

Finishes are applied in our Southern Indiana shop. Customers near this city drop off by appointment or use our nationwide mail-in process.

Why Cerakote makes sense in the Ohio River valley

Louisville summers are humid, and many firearms here spend time in boats on the Ohio, in duck blinds, in truck consoles, or carried close to the body all day. Those are the conditions where bluing and parkerizing show rust first. A properly applied Cerakote finish adds a hard ceramic layer that resists corrosion and wear, and it gives you a color that suits how the gun is used.

A carry gun usually needs a subdued single color and attention to the wear points. A waterfowl shotgun or a range rifle can carry a camo pattern or a multi color laser pattern. Tell us how you use it and we will recommend series, color, and coverage for that use.

How Louisville customers get work done

Most Louisville customers drive over on Interstate 64 and take the Highway 150 exit toward Greenville. Call (812) 364-1466 to book a drop off, and we will tell you what the job involves before any work starts. Parts such as slides, uppers, handguards, and magazines are the simplest to drop off.

Federal law allows a licensed shop to return a firearm brought in for work to its owner, including an owner from Kentucky, so a complete Louisville rifle or pistol can come in for refinishing and go home with you. If driving over is not practical, see our nationwide mail in process.

Pricing and what is included

Our Cerakote prices are published on our Cerakote page and include prep work and application, so the figure for a part is the figure for that part prepared and coated. Optic cuts and engraving are done before the finish, so book those together if you want both.
