    Trying to recoat a suppressor just how they come (as close as possible anyway) from surefire. The suppressor body is not the issue, its the color on the locking collar.

    Anyone know what color match's this or what kind of finish is on it as it looks like it's an anodizing but I know it's steel as the collar is magnetic.

    Might work for some but some of us cloners are bit more OCD than others. ;)

    If you are truly OCD, send it to SureFire for refinish.
    My 762RC was originally black. When I sent it in for repair, I had them refinish it in FDE.
     
    Looks like it’s Ionbond or similar. Maybe some burnt bronze feral ore would suffice?
