Looking to refinish my intake runners. What is closest matte/low gloss finish you guys have found? Does it need to be a high temp paint? Is it the same as the muffler paint? Danka

Jeff, Never thought I'd see the day that we disagree on originality.....but that day is here. Assuming I can take the pics as reasonably accurate, the color is too dark, and there's way too much texture. Also, the stuff is on the mounting threads, which will, unless removed, change the torque characteristics. Sorry, doesn't work for me. No further comment needed for the rest of the exhaust & heating components. Pat |
