Re: Ceramic Coating WORKS!

Hehe single turbo inline 6 with a 50mm wastegate pipe.

Ahhh... that mikes sense. That wastegate pipe is huge (looks bigger than 50mm) so I mistook it for a crossover.

Re: Ceramic Coating WORKS!

curious,

you cant sandblast the inside of the pipe because your limited in how far it will travel. you can def get the outside but limited on the inside. I heard guys will cap the side and then put in 1 0z or something and then swish it around pour into a cup and then go the the next tube, same procedure.


Does this sound about right?

I am also thinking about Doing ceramic coating for atleast me and my buddies bikes.

From what I understand this stuff works the same a cerakote chromex only black satin has a higher temp rating.

Will Answer all your Questions about the Product.

Yes it is desinged to hold the heat inside the Pipe. I did my Heads, Exhaust Manifolds, Exhaust Pipes and Mufflers. The Under Deck lid temps are way down from even the old 4 CYL.

you did it right
it's not suposed to hold the heat that the whole purpuse of it
lowering the temp by disipating the heat

Are we still talking about Satin Black?
The purpose with it is just to keep the heat in the pipe, not letting it out in the enginecompartment, thus getting higher gas speed and lowering the temp around the pipe. TLTD on the other hand works the way you describe...

As i said, ive been using it long enough to know it really works. Use any siliconespray you can get, here in Sweden we dont have the same brands as you guys...

my typing is not very good the word this should be the word thin. oops

[corybarta]

did I do it right, I applied the black satin coating on my smowmobile pipes this weekend. I blasted the pipes using garnet as a blasting media. I then hung the parts and used my hvlp gun a put on a very this coat. I then baked the pipes at 450 degrees for 1 hour, this is all the hotter my oven gets. I took them out and let them cool down and everyting looks great. Does this stuff really work, it seems like a this coat of paint would not hold heat in. any vote of confidence would be nice this stuff is expensive. thanks

by the way what did you use as a silicone spray.

[Zpider]

hmmm , satin black doesn't come out like that , that header has clear or some type of oil over it.

True, and a tip to you who use Satin Black then, spray it with a siliconespray after curing, stains of water and oil dont stick as much after the silicone get burned in. So what you see on the pic is plain satin black, with a layer of silicone...
