Cerakoting over stippling?

Messages

Can anyone provide some input on the results of creating over an already stippled polymer frame? Looking to get the whole frame coated one color but worried that the results may be lackluster from the uneven texture of the stippling.

TIA
 
No problem, but rough textured polymers (ie: stippling) seem to require a slightly thicker coat sprayed at different angles to ensure proper coverage. As an amateur, I've had a couple do-overs on plastic parts. I'm sure any reputable shop will make it look awesome.
 
The polymer frame color is H-268 Troy Coyote Tan Cerakote over a stipple job I did for myself.

Cerakote when sprayed evenly does not dilute the grip texture of the pre-existing stipple.
