[QUOTE="Copper Basin, post: 2807023, member: 53829"] I like to Cerakote them individually even if it is the same color. I make sure to wipe the anti seize of completely before using a full strength simple green degreaser bath. I let this site for an hour or more. Then dry and wipe the barrel tenon off one more time before blasting and sweating in the oven. I usually don't have to sweat out parts a second time. If it is an old action that has rust and tons of gunk in it then I wipe them down and soak in acetone for atleast an hour. This still may have oil seep out the scope base holes and the gas vent on the side. A second wipe down of acetone and reblast usually takes care of it. There is always the nasty ones though. I took apart a rifle I put together last week after I test fired it and used the above method. Everything came out fine today. I use SA customs barrel vise with aluminum shims with construction paper as the buffer. Never had a barrel mar yet. My torque on the barreled action is at 80 ft lbs. Not sure if this helps but it has been works works for me. Best wishes. [/QUOTE]
