https://greyhive.com/videos/watch/93aebeca-db90-4af1-8d1a-f5242f8fbea4 Bob from Fusion Firearms walks you through our biggest operational upgrade of the year — bringing PVD (Physical Vapor Deposition) coating fully in-house with massive industrial equipment capable of processing up to 500 firearms per day at premium quality. After our previous PVD vendor retired, we tested three other coaters and none could deliver the consistency our customers expect. Rather than compromise, we acquired the equipment and brought on the chemist who originally developed our finishes. In this video, you'll learn: What PVD actually is — and why it's one of the toughest, hardest firearm finishes available (up to 92 Rockwell on tungsten coatings) The science behind the process — vacuum chambers, line-of-sight deposition, vapor physics, and why cleanliness matters as much as chemistry Why most PVD vendors struggle with firearms — running drill bits, bearings, and auto parts in the same tanks creates contamination that ruins aesthetic quality How we achieve our signature colors — bronze, gold, blue, purple tiger, and our custom multi-strike processes Our complete finish stack — Tennifer base treatment, PVD coating, laser engraving, and protective clear coat for maximum durability A tour of the new equipment — including the rotating fixture system, ultrasonic cleaning bath, and vacuum chamber that sets us apart from standard coaters We also address back-order delays from late November and explain the capital investment we made to ensure every Fusion firearm meets the visual and performance standards our customers deserve. Featured products with PVD finishes: XP Pro double-stack 1911, XF Pro striker-fired pistol, custom shop variants, and exclusive Fusion Vault releases.
