Cerakote Handgun / AR-15 Small Parts
The Details Make the Build.
Finish the smaller components of your handgun or AR-15 with a professional Cerakote application from OceanStateArmory. This service is designed specifically for individual small parts that don't fall under our standard slide, frame, upper receiver, or lower receiver Cerakote services.
Whether you're looking to add subtle color accents to a custom build, match replacement components to an existing Cerakote finish, or completely change the appearance of your controls and hardware, OSA can coat the small details that bring the entire project together.
Choose from hundreds of available Cerakote colors, from traditional blacks and earth tones to vibrant colors, metallics, and specialty finishes.

Important Fit & Function Considerations
Cerakote is an extremely thin coating, but some firearm components have tight tolerances or critical engagement surfaces that should not be coated.
OSA will determine which surfaces require masking or should remain uncoated to help preserve proper fit and function.
Depending on the component, certain areas may only receive partial coating.
Disassembly & Reassembly
This service is intended primarily for individual parts submitted already disassembled from the firearm.
Disassembly and reassembly are not included unless specifically stated.
If you submit a complete firearm, slide, frame, upper, or lower that requires additional disassembly or reassembly to access the requested components, additional gunsmithing labor may apply.
Why Cerakote?
Cerakote is a thin-film ceramic coating designed to provide excellent protection while allowing virtually unlimited customization.
Benefits include:
- Excellent corrosion resistance
- Abrasion and wear resistance
- Chemical resistance
- UV stability
- Extremely thin application
- Hundreds of available colors
- Professional, factory-quality appearance
Our Thoughts
Sometimes the smallest changes make the biggest difference.
Cerakoting a trigger, controls, pins, magazine release, or other small components can completely change the character of a build without refinishing the entire firearm.
Whether you're adding a few subtle accents or tying together a completely custom OSA build, small-part Cerakote lets you get the details exactly how you want them.
