HPC Coatings: they do a ton of work for many different items.

The only stipulation is they only have a facility in Utah or Oklahoma, so it may cost a little more to ship and slower to get there and back.

Here is an example of the differences it can make:

Polydyn and Calico are the coating manufacturers I have used with good results.
