Fail Zero is a Nickel Boron coating.. no? Can they coat in other colors now? I'd be interested in doing my Rock in Black... but that's just me. I know... I know... it's already parked... but I actually like the duty finish on my DW, and when you put the two side by side... the Rock just isn't as pretty.

Correct...

Fail-Zero is a Nickel Boron coating.
It is done at Fail-Zero , It does not come in colors and you can not do it on your own (trying to answer a few questions at once).

The finish is harder than a chrome finish, and there is no need for any oil on the gun. It runs dry and runs great.
When it gets dirty, just take an alcohol wipe and clean it off.

Thanks for the nice comments on the gun.
