im almost done with my manifold and i was wondering what the best choice would be to cover it with? i dont wanna wrap it and have it rust. i know my options but is there a spray i can buy at a auto store that can withstand the heat? or do i have to get it proffesionally done somewhere?

 

professionally -ceramic coating, jet hot coating, chrome palting, Ti nitride(ing), swain.
bow and arrow - high heat paint now available in ricer kiwi, anything you paint at home will have to cleaned with acid before painting. if your serious PM me for instructiuons

what high heat paint to use from where?

 

i think its called bow and arrow, just taking a guess. im not sure

 

sorry you guys use your language with all the z's in it I use mine ie. bow and arrow means home made not professional - I use a lot of VHT flame proof coating - good to 1500degrees F and ALTAWOOD COMPETITION

 

where can i get this paint? im interested, diy instead of professional is better for me

 

Also interested, lemme know, thanks

 

I go the store for mine, I'm in Canada so sont know where to send you, ask a machine shop thats why blocks look so good when they come back - hot tank my ***, just a can of spray paint. they are both made in USA and come in all colors

 

is that the powder crap? I hate that stuff, go buy some ceramachrome and bake it after applying the ceramic

 

no man just high heat spray paint offers no real barrier, just looks good and stays good looking.

 

I had my drag mani cc and it looks brand spakin new, no cracks or anything

 

Try the DEI silicon heat paint. Summit has it for like $6 a can. I used it to paint my turbine housing.

How does that paint stand up on your turbine?

Haven't fired it up yet but another member used it and it worked out good for him. I think it was Bryson in my memory serves me correctly.

i just found a shop nearby me that ceramic coats and hell give me a very cheap price. should i go for it? does this help with the heat?

 

polydyn....

 

whats that? is that a place that will do it? also should i have my turbine ceramic coated too or no?

 

HPC coating company can put a coating on the manifold. They gurantee it not to ever burn through. It also allows the manifold to cool quicker. The only bad thing is it kinda of expensive.
