Cerakoting an English double is akin to the queen wearing overalls. I think the key to what is being said here is a GOOD cold blue job.
You are trying to dress it up, not turn it into a functional junker.
I'm not trying to offend, its just the the best way I could think of to describe cerakoting an English double.
Yes exactly, that is why I suggested a proper application of Oxpho Blue as a much better alternative to Cerrakote on a vintage double. It doesn't take a lot of skill or money to do a presentable job. It is much better and more durable than any other cold blue I have tried. It is easily reversible, and it doesn't take a professional to apply it. I don't know the actual condition of the gun, but assumed it is at least worth saving and making it look decent.
It ain't right, but I'm sure there is someone out there who has decided to refinish a decent old Rolls Royce with rattle cans of spray paint... or this...
