I went to the powder/ceramic coater today and we were discussing the internal engine coatings he also offers. That prompted me to do some research on them for future use. I found this article I thought was fairly informative being that I have a few personal engines that would benefit from some extra protection

I have been using coatings for about 10 years. They work very well when properly applied. There is a noticable reduction in static friction when rotating a new engine. Break-in time seems reduced as well. The thermal barrier coatings (TBC) reduce engine temperatures and allow you run less timing and leaner mixtures at optimum power.
They are worth the price of admission. |
