Cerakote removal

[Striker777]

I have some cerakoted parts and wanted to know what works the best to remove it (1851 navy R&M conversion barrel) is there something that works better than others I was just going to use some aircraft stripper C-bee it's pretty harsh didn't know if ordinary paint stripper would do the job.
thanks.

Sandblaster takes it right off.
The parts should have been sandblasted before they were sprayed so you don't have to worry about sandblasting them again since they were already sandblasted once.
What are you going to do for a finish after you have the cerakote off the gun?
It's going to have a sandblasted finish under the cerakote so it will never look like the orginal polish/blue after the cerakote is removed.

Put my vote down for parkerizing.

Put my vote down for parkerizing.

Ya know that's most likely what I'm going to have to do or re cerakote it right it looks like crap someone did a terrible job on it.
Thanks I really don't have much of a choice.

I'm going to try stripper first their are some scratches in it and to be honest it doesn't look very rough under the cerakote if for chance they did not sand blast it I'll send it over to techplate for re bluing.

I’ve tried paint stripper and aircraft stripper with no luck. Sand paper worked but ultimately sand blasting is the best way.

If you are close to techplate, you are well within driving range of me as well.
I do blasting and Parkerizing on a while-you-wait appointment so you only have to make one trip to my place.
