Does anyone know a certified DuraCoat painter in NC, preferable in the northeast part of the estate?

My in-laws live in Fayetteville. Maybe I'll give these guys a call. The finish on the frame of my Para is getting pretty worn in places, and I'm thinking of getting it DuraCoated in either black or dark green...

Thanks.

I just got off the phone with GunsPlus and they only charge $70 to DuraCoat the frame. Since I have a polished stainless slide, I wouldn't want the whole gun Duracoated.

However, they hold them for 30 days after finishing, to give the DuraCoat time to properly cure and harden...

I guess now I'm going to HAVE to buy another Para (or a wheelgun, which I wanted to get soon anyway) to carry while I wait, if I decide to get it refinished... ;)
