Interesting, they don't shine like other ceramic coated pieces I've seen. Who did the work?
PS - if it works who cares what it looks like |

I chose the higher heat coating and decided to go flat because it will last longer!
If they were new HE's I would have gone gloss! Jeff |

Does the coating prevent them from rusting? How long should the coating last?

QUOTE Does the coating prevent them from rusting? Yes! They are dipped and cleaned then coated inside and out. No more rust worries for quite a while. QUOTE How long should the coating last? That depends on how hard you use it! With the amount of driving I will be doing, they will last a life time! I don't know, I just wanted them to look better and last longer! Jeff |

They look great Jeff. I was thinking of picking up the Ceramic coating kit from Columbia Coatings to do my own stuff.

I had an NOS set (1.7) of HE's done in the grey, though it appears to be a bit lighter. I then sent the Bursch exhaust and the rest of the heater ducting out to be coated; the heater stuff will be powder coated in a color close to that of the HE's.
I have had a set of JBA headers on my big block Suburban for about two years and the aluminum ceramic coating appears to be almost the same as the day I first installed them. I know that you can clean/shine the aluminum coating with Mother's wheel polish but I'm not about to remove the headers off my truck just to spruce them up a little; I have done it to headers that weren't on a car, though! |
