Looks great. Was that originally the beadblasted A1? Is Duracoating something a regular Joe can do, or does it require special equipment and cost a bunch? I have a Pineapple body that doesn't match with anything. I've been thinking about ways to refinish the whole light so that everything matches.

Radio, I think Mac has teased and taunted us enough with his awesome work with duracoat that he should send us some sample containers(Quarts or Gallon size will do!:whistle: ) so we can give it a try ourselves!:rock:

Yes anybody can Duracoat. The kit is around $60 dollars with airbrush and one color. Colors are $16 for 4 ounces.
