You can get it close but even at best it will have the color but not the polish. Things to remember. Cerakote can be applied to a semi gloss. Going outside of the recommendations can get a nice gloss but it also likes a texture to grab on to the surface. Duracote is paint pure and simple. Cerakote can and will show the grain but there is a depth and shine to a good bluing over polish that just will not be there with anything other than bluing. Now a tinted clear cerakote is something I have thought might get close but have not played with it yet. Just some thoughts.
