Default Ceramic Coating WORKS!

As some of you all know I ceramic coated my Exhaust system on my Fiero. Well I got it running last weekend and got to drive it around a bit today and MAN waht a difference. The under lid Temps are down a ton! compared to even the old 4 cyl I had in there. Even after running for a min I touched the Exhaust Manifold and it did not burn my finger! it was hot but not sear your skin off hot! Thumbs Up and I recommened it for any Exhaust Parts!

How did you end up polishing it? I have had a hard time getting ceramic coatings to shine.

Worked with Techlines products for 1.5 years now, and yes, they do the job right

This is the post I've been waiting for, I am going to do my snowmobile pipes in the satin black that way I can remove the heat shields and save 3.5 pounds of weight. I am glad to know that it actually keeps the temps down. I bought a can of the satin black from caswell about two months ago and am going to apply it this weekend. thanks
