Freedom Cerakote

Freedom Seeders started in 2021 in Crawfordsville as a firearms dealer focused on quality builds. By 2025, they'd expanded into full manufacturing and recognized they needed a finish that matched their build quality—that's when Cerakote became their specialty. Now with a dedicated shop in Kokomo, they serve shooters across Central Indiana including Indianapolis, Tipton, Carmel, Westfield, and Brownsburg.

Firearms are the core business: - Complete handguns and AR platform rifles - Slides, frames, uppers, lowers, handguards - Bolts, charging handles, muzzle devices, stocks - Magazines and small parts - Revolvers and bolt-action rifles - Shotguns and optics mounting

But they don't stop at guns. They also refinish: - Automotive and motorsports components (wheels, exhaust manifolds, turbo housings) - Tools, electronics, and outdoor gear - Custom knives (fixed blade and folding) - Motorcycle and dirt bike parts - Tumblers, mugs, and personal accessories - Antique hardware and restoration projects

Cerakote is the industry standard—a ceramic polymer coating sprayed and oven-cured for extreme durability. Resists scratches, corrosion, and temperatures up to 1800°F. Perfect for protection that lasts.

Gun Candy is where things get loud. Metallic sparkles, color-shifting effects, iridescent finishes, and that "candy coat" glaze that makes people stop and stare. Same protection as Cerakote, nothing basic about the look.

Add $25-50 per additional color. Custom finishes like cel shading or glitter jobs command additional charges. Tumblers and mugs run $45-60+ depending on size and design complexity.

Multi-color jobs, Gun Candy effects, and complex finishes like CEL Shading may add $25-50+ to the base price. Contact for exact quotes.

Scroll their portfolio and you'll see: - Cel Shade/Comic Book finishes (Borderlands-style, manga-themed AR builds) - Camo patterns (Highland Ghost, chocolate chip, urban camo 2-tone, custom AR9 winter camo) - Color effects (neon/Tron style, galaxy coatings, distressed flags, custom mixed grey/gold) - Historic restoration (1904 door hardware, Civil War Kentucky rifle, antique tackle box to tool box) - Gun Candy topcoats (Mongoose, Pegasus, Kraken, Viper, Alpine) - Motorsports (dirt bike components in titanium/graphite black, custom wheels, turbo housings)
