Title: Powder coating, Por15, ceramic coating, polishing etc.
Post by: clipperjay on 09 June 2012, 23:49

Anyone know about ceramic coating like the manifold does the coat keep heat in?
I'm just thinking about uppin the bay with some smooth long lasting touches?
Costs?
Time?
Longivity?

Jay,

Have a search on here; http://www.s2forum.com/index.php

A lot of the guys swear by por15 on the sub frames...

I'm not sure POR15 will last long on a manifold to be honest. It's good stuff but very expensive and the prep work HAS to be perfect otherwise it'll all flake off. This means buying all of the other associated 'marine clean' degreaser etc which equals ££££.
