Title: Header coatings who has had it done and who is the best
Post by: ccsct203 on September 26, 2010, 07:19:22 AM
With winter coming and my V&H exhaust getting dated looking I want to send it out for coating.
I want to know
who does the best job for a good price
which coating is best or is that a personal choice

I'm a fan of Swain Coatings. I had the TBC-EX coating done on my collector box, cost $55.00.

This coating really keeps the chin faring cool in the hot weather.
A nice thick coating, white in color ( I sprayed it hi-temp black then BBQ cured) A Very durable coating, it's holding up well.
I had a Jet Hot coating done on my Miata. I was not impressed. The Jet Hot was a thinner coat than the Swain application.

I suspect that it's gonna cost $$$ to get a full header coated.

Cheers!
