Header coating

[Bernhard]

I was at the trade show and came across this new header coating.
It looks rather promising as it is applied with a standard spray gun
The only real difficult part looks to be the application mill thickness is
Quite stringent 1 to 1.2 mills
Product is called Zycoat

Colours come in black,Silver,Charcoal

What sort of durability and to what temperatures do they claim?

Interesting...

They claim the coating has a rating of 9 for hardness
They also said it did well in the salt spray test
I did ask about what temp it was designed to handle
I just don’t remember the exact specs
They did surface temperature testing over 800F
I forgot what temp that related to exhaust temp

Their web page says 2000 degrees
Only down side is 3 colors

Thanks for posting a link.
I agree that is a down side for the day two headers that came with cool colours like
Orange, white , Blue
My day two 180 degree headers came silver so I might give this product a try.
