Cerakote Vs Hydrographic

As you can see in the pictures both items have a covering on them. What is the correct covering for you? Lets get into the differences and the pros vs Cons of each.

Cerakote is a special covering that will adhere to plastic, metal, wood, and many other materials. The coating is a form of polymer-ceramic coating. The benefits to cerakote is that when applied correctly it will protect the under surface of the product you apply it to. This will allow your item to last for many more years protecting it from rust and scratches and damage from normal wear and tear. The color choice is basically endless. The fact that this item is so durable it is ideal for pistols and shotguns that have several moving parts. As with anything there is some cons to this items.

Cerakote even though how durable it is has some limits. First being the designs. With cerakote its designed for durability and there for makes it hard to create elaborate designs. Most designs use templates to make some designs or patterns. The problem is that cerakote being ceramic based does not like anything to stick to it after it has hardened. So you must complete the project in less than 2 hours when using multiple colors or it will just chip off. The second con is the price. Compared to hydro graphics cerakote is more expensive. You are paying for the additional protection and durability, however the paint is higher in price than the film for hydro graphics.

Hydro graphics is a film made out of polyvinyl alcohol. The film will dissolve once placed in water and sprayed with the activator. Once this happens it leaves the design on top of the water and will stick to anything that is placed in the water. The designs and the patterns are much more indepth than cerakote, however does not provide the protection as cerakote. Once the pattern is placed and all the clean up and touch ups are completed a clear coat will need to be applied to provide some protection from scratches and dings. Think of it as car paint. The clear coat on your car provides the same protection to your cars paint as it would for the film. With door dings and other scrapes you know that clear coat is not damage proof. The same is for hydro graphics. This choice is ideal for something you want to show off and gently use. Works perfect for a range gun, wall piece, or something you want to display. The plus is your choices to designs is only limited to your imagination. The plus to this is the price is lower than cerakote as well. You can also do shoes, crocs, kids lunch pales, and a ton of other items.

Cons is pretty straight forward. This choice does not provide protection from drops and scrapes. The film could be scratched if you penetrate the clear coat. This choice will not work for devices that have electrical components that can’t be removed. The prep work is a little harder than cerakote as well.

Both of these choices will bring years of satisfaction. Its just important to answer a few questions to decide which choice is correct for you. If you still have a few questions feel free to email us or message us. Let us handle taking care of the things you love.

Just shaking my head

As I sit here I really didn’t know what the title should be. I’m waiting to go to work looking through the news articles to read bull shit.

One article reads Ozzy Osborne is leaving America. In the article it says he is tired of the mass shootings. He is selling his house in California for 18 million dollars. Not two months ago he stated he was leaving California do you high taxes. We’ll I wonder if hiring 87000 IRS agents had anything to do with him wanting to go back to England. If he really is leaving from all of the mass shootings, I ask why can’t you give back to a country that has gave you so much. So many people has lived his music to include me. I never thought someone would turn there back on a country that has supported him so much. With all the money and influence you have you can’t help do something to stop it.

The answer doesn’t start with money it starts with people asking questions. Put your political views apart and start doing what the people did to build this country. The government will not fix this problem. They will continue to profit from it. You look at how much money was spent to benefit this government. The first question should be, what are you doing to protect our children? I promise you the security at congress and senate will be increased after Jan 6. Do you not think that costs money?

I just really wish people would think and start relying on each other to fix problems. As a veteran I know you can’t rely on our government, however history has shown you can rely on the American people.

We have came together during so many times of need. From 9-11 to ww1 and 2. National disasters that has effected people you didn’t know, but wanted to help. Do you not think the things going on in our country isn’t something that we should rely on each other to fix versus a government that does not listen.

87,000 new jobs created Build Back Better

Man if that title doesn’t look like an awesome thing for Americans in this time of need. The inflation rate is up to 8.5% which has lowered your buying power by 5% from a year ago. The new jobs are all in one industry. The IRS is hiring 87,000 employees to replace the 50,000 that are retired or expected to depart over the next 6 years. I know in the media that they say the term agents. This is not completely true, as some of these positions are IT, maintenance and the normal jobs that is required to run a business.

Wait did I say busines? Well to be honest I think the government has turned more into a business over the years. It seems they really do care about two things. Your vote, and your tax dollars. It does not matter what political party your with, you have to look back and ask yourself one question. Did they do anything they told you they would do when they tried to persuaded you to cast that vote. I know I heard all sorts of free stuff that was coming, like free college and reduced taxes, and jobs. Well at least one thing was true, there is jobs coming.

Now I am not against taxes so lets get that out in the open. I do think that our government has gotten so big that they feel we work for them. Here is why I say that! If you go back to the several stimulas bills I want to focus on a few things. In the 1.9 trillion dollar recovery act they gave away about 11 billion dollars to foreign aid. From 2013 to 2018 we gave away almost 300 billion dollars in foreign aid mostly consisting to 11 countries. In this time frame America has gave away the most money in foreign aid than any other country. I have never seen anyone get a vote on where their tax dollars go at the federal level. Polls have been taken over and over, and they all say majority wants to stop giving away so much in foreign aid. Than bill after bill gets passed with money allocated to foreign aid.

My problem is how over taxed the American working class is. Giving away a huge chunk of their money to a government who does not appreciate it. Regardless of what the government does for us, they will constantly give themselves a raise higher than inflation levels, while jobs gives American workers the standard 2.5% raise if any at all. Let me break it down why the average American worker feels like it can’t get ahead.

Lets say you make a $1000.00 a month. Lets say you spend 120.00 in gas a month. and a budget of 200.00 in groceries a month. Leaving the rest for rent and utilities. Now I know this is low on what it takes to survive, but bare with me.

For fuel tax I could only find a 2019 average. The average tax was .60 a gallon. The average price of fuel was 2.60 in 2019. Divide the 120 by 2.60 this means you bought 46 gallons of fuel. This means you gave the states 28.00 of your 1000.00 for taxes reducing your buying power of fuel by .60 cents a gallon. Now this tax is suppose to go towards roads and emissions and so forth. However the same items are taxed several times in different ways.

That 1000.00 you made is also taxed so lets say you pay about 15% in taxes this is also low its closer to 18 so out of the 1000.00 you lost 150.00 to states and federal taxes. This money is to be spent however they want.

Grocery items are taxed as well. Most states are between 4 and 7 percent. Non Grocery items are taxed at the states sales tax rate. So you see what is happening. You loose the buying power of your money to pay taxes on items with money that is already taxed because you worked for it. So the government can decide how much money they made off you versus how much over there income they received they are going to borrow from other countries. All of this additional money from stimulus bills to national debt contributes to increased taxes and inflation. These two items are directly effecting your buying power at the pump, the grocery store, to supplies for home repairs and car repairs.

I completely feel it is time for people to think about cause and effect. Everything the government does will have a direct effect on you in some way. It is important to understand over regulations effects jobs directly as well as the need for more money from the tax power. So increasing the IRS by 37k will have a direct effect on you buy the budget that is needed to pay them. They are already counting on money that will come from business, and regardless of what is said the middle class. You will see mom and pop stores closing, and taxes and inflation will be the direct cause. It is sad to see the down fall of the greatest country in the world, but if things don’t change it just may come to light.

IF it pops up with an option to exit mobile advice just click that and it should load right. I will start working on that issue this week or so and fix it.

Does our constitutional rights matter under private owned companies?

[nk_awb awb_type=”image” awb_stretch=”true” awb_image=”1602″ awb_image_size=”full” awb_image_background_size=”cover” awb_image_background_position=”50% 50%”]

It started out to be a way to  get veterans  to join together and bring back the comradery of our brotherhood.  Its sad that we are given rights that prevents the government to infringe on them.  Does this mean that private companies do not have to abide by?

We would occasionally go live on Tik Tok and show us recording a new podcast.  Most people know we are trying to prevent veteran suicide.  Its sad that people get on there and bombard us with typical politics nonsense.  It really does makes me laugh lol.  I laugh because me and Doug both consider us Politically Homeless.  We both don’t believe in a big government and feel that no government of today has our best interest in.

So lets get into what is happening.  The first amendment states “Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.”  Unfortunately this does not say anything about private business.  This makes you really wonder does this mean that you have to be willing to get rid of your constitutional rights to use their platform.  Unfortunately it seems that way.  In order  to use Tik Tok we have to be willing to hide our guns that are tripled lock and legal to own to be on their platform.  Its sad.  Considering the second amendment states this “A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.”  Again in this situation to go live on Tik Tok I have to be willing to give up my first and second amendment rights.  Its unfortunate.

The real problem is with all the big tech companies we are not the customer we are the product.  They are making  a living off our content and our work.  The more we are on it and interacting the more  they can charge for advertisements.  This means you don’t have any rights on there.  You will give up your rights to have what is suppose to be enjoyment.  I strongly consider people to look at what they have to give up to enjoy an app.

I am not saying ban Tik Tok.  We will still consider to post because its more important to get our message out.  We  will just be moving our lives from Tik Tok to YouTube.  If you like our content please subscribe to our channel and help give us a voice.
