I don't see any specific information about the BBE coating. Can someone link me to it?

I'm pretty sure that coating your intercooler was a bad idea, but I don't want to say anything before I am sure.

its not a bad idea.....i have basically my entire engine coated with the various types of these coatings....from pistons to valves to intake manifold to exhaust manifold....

the product does what it should...and to coat an intercooler like what he did will make more difference than you would think....

its not just flat black paint

oh yeah and it looks bad *** soon_2b_evil good stuff...

Soon_2b_evil,

I can't really tell what color that coating is. your pics are a lil blurry and bluish.

Also what is the texture like? smooth or rough?

BTW: Sucks *** what UPS did to it.... I think if I send mine out to get coated I'll crate it.

Is Real Black i dont know why it looks bluish, i guess its the picture. the texture is really smooth. I havent mounted it yet, my car isnt done. Im trying to get everything done at one time. IM not trying to half *** it so. I'll be 100% done in Janunary I know that for a FACT. ITs not going to any longer then that. It took i think it was like a total of 2weeks to ship it up there and have then coat it and ship it back.
Also the coating is .0005
