I made myself a hunter of that material and coated it with clear Gun Kote....then put it through a Montana hunting season......it came through without a scratch. So I started using it on other blades.

I found that the "trick" with any of the Gun Kote products is to apply LIGHTLY (if you can see a sheen or a "wet" look, you've over applied it) with an airbrush (I use the Harbor Freight cheapies) and once the finish is baked on, allow it to FULLY cool naturally, before messing with it. After that, it's like it becomes part of the blade....very tough and durable.
thanks Ed appreciate the info......
