    I have been told a couple of times that Jabuie is basically the company that handles DLC coating for a number of custom gunsmiths - http://www.jabuie.com/ionbond.html

    There are nickel/Teflon finishes other than NP3; this 1911, done by Jojo’s Gunworks, is coated with a finish called Slick Shot. While it is a little more gray and NP3 is a little more silver, I’ve had guns done in both and they are similar in durability and lubricity.

    Today is the last day that we will be in business. When we put that notification up on the website, we had high hopes of someone either purchasing or investing in the company, but it fell through.

    I think this is the company that they use. There are lots of coatings that they have which could be interesting.

    Slik Shot®, a high-end finish offered exclusively by Nutmeg Chrome, wears better and lasts longer than standard Nickel Teflon® coatings.


    Nutmeg's Slik Shot® process is an electroless-plated coating of a nickel phosphorus alloy with Teflon® particles evenly dispersed throughout the coating, offering optimum performance. With Teflon® particles included as an integral part of the plating deposit, corrosion resistance and wearability are greatly enhanced.

    This REALLY sucks!!!! Robar is/was local to me and I enjoyed being able to drop stuff off without having to ship. Was planning on doing more business with them in the near future.

    Robar has coated three of my guns with NP3. This is terrible news.

    Even though Robars NP3 is a competitor too our CPII Nickel Boron Nitride plating I hate to see any company in the firearms industry close
