It's a good finish but it doesn't have super powers it wears like anything else, you rub it repeatably(Holster) or abuse it. It's going to scratch and fade.

I have only had the "Bake" on finish applied to some of my rifles and handguns. I have watched a friends Black KG GunKote finish he applied himself wear better than a professional Cerakote finish on some of my stuff.

Just posted this guys info in another thread too for something else... CaR Firearms does an awesome job with cerakote, or anything else coating wise.  Guys name is Fred Hastings, 253-642-7461.  I have seen a lot of his work, and it is really top notch  I am pretty sure he is in Tukwila, but it might also be considered west Renton.
