Default Duracoat firearms application and sandblasting?

Hi. Does anyone know of a professional firearms refinishing or Gunsmithing business in Alberta that can sandblast a bolt action rifle and apply a Duracoat finish? Preferably in the Edmonton to Calgary regions.

Fyi

Duracoat is super easy to use. I have done a half dozen rifles with good results for myself at home.

1. Sand with 600-800 grit to create something for the duracoat to bite too.

2. Wax and grease remove all metal.

3. With airbrush spray light tack coat.

4. Second tack coat

5. Spray wet coat

Done!

Only down fall was I had to import the products from the U.S.
That was a couple years ago and might have changed since then.

Default Cera

Cerakote or KG Gunkote products are better suited.

I am looking to match the color code of a Vortex Razor HD Gen II scope. It is called "Stealth Shadow" and Duracoat is the only product with the color code match. Thanks for your reply.
