Hi All,

I've seen pictures of parts painted with ceracote coatings, and they do look good. Does anyone have any experience with how well they hold up, or if they provide good rust or corrosion protection?

Also used a bunch on firearms and exhaust.
You can get samples from the company in any color they have.
Ben did some fans for me. Looked great.
Their chrome paint is the closest match I’ve seen to chrome - at least from 10’ away.

Their purpose is threefold.

Looks
Thermal characteristics
Corrosion prevention.
