I used TTW for ceramic plating. He gets a good trade discount, as he sends in batches, and then passes this saving on to customers. It's cheaper using TTW than going direct.

I've had a set done by Langcourts and a set Aptec coated. The finish on the Aptec barrels was definitely better. The Langcourts barrels were perfectly useable but had pits in several places, they came back with a note stating that it was normal and I didn't worry about it, but the Aptec cylinders looked perfect out the box.
