Caveman Smoke review heat activated coating

Caveman’s Smoke is a heat-activated coating that can be applied to your suppressors. As the suppressor heats up, the colors and graphics begin to show through.

When the flame hit the suppressor, it would change from black to an American Flag.

It is super quiet, lightweight and simple.

This patented tech delivers real-time information about your temps, with visuals like nothing else youve ever seen.

I had to see what it looked like and how well it worked.

installing Caveman Smoke suppressor

The Caveman Smoke coating has no impact on the normal function of a suppressor.

I then mag dumped it to heat the can up.

As it was 28 degrees and windy out, unfortunately the suppressor didnt get over 130 degrees.

I quickly loaded another 32 rounds and dumped that, followed by one more full mag.

Fully heated, the Caveman Smoke coating shows a distinct design. The colors and designs were truly impressive.

I was very impressed.
