Honestly it's not that hard. If you're a stickler for detail and process, meaning you respect the step by step nature of it and take the time to complete each step properly, you'll do fine. Cutting corners will create more work or a crappy finished product. The hardest part should be getting the right spray pattern on your paint gun. I use a small detail sprayer with the hopper on top and it works like dream. For smaller stuff I got an airbrush. I use the same compressor I use for roofing but I have a regulator and water trap right on the hose attachment I use for spraying. My Kydex oven is perfect for the small parts and the barrel and handguard went in the kitchen oven. Metal is only baked for an hour, polymer for 2 (lower temp). Cerakote has a pretty extensive but simple how to guide here - [URL="https://www.cerakote.com/resources/files/training/Cerakote_ELITE_H-Series_Training_Manual_WEB_1-17-17.pdf"] I am going to convert a new walmart smoker oven to a Cerakote oven to create a more dedicated setup.
