They introduce Paul DeWys, the owner and sales engineer of Forerunner 3D, a service bureau in western Michigan. Paul shares the background of his company's transition from SLA to HP MJF printing and the challenges they faced with limited color options. He explains how they discovered and adopted Cerakote, a ceramic-based coating from the firearms industry, for 3D printed parts.
