Not the worst gun finish

I've used this finish for several guns, a 1911, Desert Eagle, Rem 700, Black powder muzzle loader, Single Six, and AR mags. When you do your prep work right, this finish is tough. Especially when you put it on over park., the finish is nearly indestructible. I don't know what the other reviewer did wrong, but when done correctly, blue painters tape will not pull off. Make sure you really degrease your parts good. I clean & degrease at least 3 times before applying finish. Sometimes more, if you are putting over park. And all finishes, including this one, does show holster wear after a while. Some may take longer to show wear than others, but all do.

So far so good

I agree with the other gentleman about proper prep work. I degrease between each step before spraying and have not had any problems with the earth brown. Lays down nice and evenly. I've done several guns with this now and have yet to have any peeling or other issues. It's fairly tough too. I got a bad batch of OD green and decided to do some testing before blasting and refinishing. I dragged a screwdriver across it and although it did show it didn't go thru the finish. The only thing I found that would go down to the metal was sand paper. It's harder to blast back to metal than the factory finish is. Overall I think it's pretty good stuff.

No 0 star rating

Don't expect this finish to last only good for looks maybe. Basically wrecked my upper and lower now I have to reblast them, what a pain. DO NOT USE ON INTERNALS. Prepped better than advised to raw, mixed 4:1, pre heated parts to 100f, laid down with airbrush fine, oven cured for 30 at 300f rest 30 between coats, let rest 24hrs b4 assembly. Finish flaked off immediately at charge handle catch, inside receivers at all contact points even at take down and pivot pins.

Teflon Moly

Worst finish EVER!!!!! Nothing sticks to teflon, and this teflon will not stick to anything. Followed instructions to the letter, even sand blasted my parts. Blue Painters tape pulled this finish right off my gun. Get the KG Gunkote
