xd duracoat rant.
I got my ez duracoat kit in the mail yesterday. I prepped my pistol hooked the hose to the can mixed my color got ready to spray and nothing happened the hose at the can and at the airbrush gun was leaking so bad there wasnt enough pressure to spray the product. Needless to say I was pissed so I gathered myself and called lauer weaponry. The help I got was amazing the lady I talked to(forgot her name) said she would send me a new airbrush kit plus another 4oz bottle of color. So instead of waiting another week for my replacement kit to come in I hit my buddy up who runs a sign shop for a compressor and airbrush. I set up to try this again I couldnt ask for anything more this product was so easy to use just follow the directions and thats it. I have never picked up an airbrush gun before this so with a little help from him on spraying technique I now have a new woodland tan finish on my xd-40 that looks sswwweeeett! I will post pics soon. thx for reading my rant.

I can't wait to see the finish. I was thinking about doing a tan/dark earth lower on my XD9Service. Good to hear that the process was easy and you got good service from Lauer.

Technically...
...this is not a rant. It is a rave.
And I'm glad to hear that Duracoat is easy to apply, because I've been thinking about it for a while... |
