Full description and what we offer

Emerald City Cerakote handles custom finishing and personalization on firearms, vehicles, furniture, and personal electronics. If you can bring it in (or ship it), they can finish it.

•Cerakote Finishing - The core service. They apply durable ceramic-based finishes that resist chips, scratches, and fading better than standard paint. Available in hundreds of colors, including multi-color camo patterns.

•Plating - Chrome, gold, nickel, and other metallic finishes that add durability and corrosion resistance alongside the aesthetic upgrade.

•Stippling - Custom grip texturing on firearms and gear. Choose subtle or aggressive—they'll match what you want. Improves grip and adds visual character.

•Engraving - Custom designs, logos, names, or intricate artwork etched into materials. Personalization that's permanent.

•Airbrushing - Precision artwork for firearms, vehicles, and everyday items. Complex designs and fine details that stand out.

•Powder Coating - Vibrant, durable finishes with excellent resistance to chips, scratches, and fading. Works on metal items, car parts, and more.

Project Type	Lead Time	Notes
Basic Cerakote (firearms)	1-2 weeks	Small, simple finishes
Cerakote + engraving/plating	2-3 weeks	Additional services slow it down

Pricing varies by project. Complexity matters: a single-color finish costs less than multi-color camo. Larger items require more material and time. Additional services (stippling, engraving, plating) add to the cost.
