Our essential Cerakote training course is the perfect way to learn about Cerakote application and decide if it’s the right career path for you. You’ll be taught in a group setting by professional applicators and we’ll provide all the equipment, materials, and project parts you need. Because it is taught in a group setting, you have the advantage of interacting with other applicators and learning from their experiences, as well.

You’ll get hands-on experience with Cerakote application and have the opportunity to ask any questions you may have about the process. After completing the course, you’ll have a better understanding of what it takes to be a Cerakote applicator and be able to make an informed decision about whether this is the right career for you. This is a great opportunity to get started in Cerakote without investing a lot of money.
