Application and Training

Cerakote^® is a professionally applied OEM finish, it is not a DIY finish. NIC Industries offers the only one-on-one training program for Cerakote^® in North America. You will receive individual training at our state-of-the-art facilities in White City, Oregon. Our expert trainers will provide you the training you need for your industry. Each class is tailored to fit your needs to be successful at coating products in your industry. We regularly work with manufacturers, coating companies, OEMs, and a variety of custom shops.

Please review each document for more information on benefits of becoming a Certified Cerakote^® Applicator, travel, and our general training outline. It is best to start the process by filling out our application. Answering these questions will help us get a better understanding of who you are and what you are wanting to accomplish. Once the application is sent, we will verify the market area you are in is not saturated as we review your application (if applicable). You will be sent an invoice for $1,000 to reserve your spot in our next available training class.
