I haven't but wouldn't be afraid to. Just make sure to tape off everything good so paint doesn't get in the barrel, action or trigger assembly. Also the paint will last a lot longer if you spray on a couple coats of good clear coat.

Maybe.......

Not with a can, but did dura coat on parts before assembling. Have some more projects in the works.

It's definitely not a problem to do. Completely wash it with brake cleaner, let it dry and spray your colors. When paint dries oil all the moving parts.

I have done dura coat with a gun.

Have a can of alumahyde I have yet to try.
I've done dura coat and was pleased with it. Its fairly tough. I had some alumahyde and I tried to paint a synthetic stock with it. It didn't stick well to it. I figure that it would stick better to metal than plastic.

Get this poors stuff outta here! Its gotta be molecularly bonded ceramic nano coatings or GTFO!

Just joking. Aint nothing wrong with a coat from a can! It can come out looking pretty sweet. Camo patterns can look nice with stencils.

Didn't bother me to do it because I knew it would help in situations and never be sold.
