| Q. | What kind of temperatures can your coatings withstand? |
| A. | CermaKrome™ and CermaSSteel™ will withstand 1300f base metal temp. We offer other coatings with a matte finish that will withstand over 2000f. |
| Q. | What about corrosion resistance? |
| A. | The coatings have been tested up to 5000hrs @ 5% salt spray. |
| Q. | How long have you been coating headers? |
| A. | Since 1995, and over 1100 sets of headers were done at our facility in 2003. |
| Q. | What is your Warranty? |
| A. | We offer a five year limited warranty - see our warranty page. |
| Q. | I've seen headers at car shows that look like the coating is dull and grey looking near the top of the header. Why is that, and can your coatings do that? |
| A. | The reason for this is that all metallic ceramic coatings, that have a polished aluminum to chrome finish have aluminum in the coating for the chrome look. Aluminum burns at 1300f. That is why the metalic ceramic coatings are rated at 1300f. At 1300f the aluminum in the coating burns and turns to a dull color. Yes ours, like ALL OTHER metallic ceramic coatings will go flat at over 1300f base metal temperature. We at least have the honesty to tell you this and explain why this happens! We can also advise you how to help avoid the problem from occuring. |
| Q. | What can I do to help avoid the coating from burning? |
| A. | The first thing is to avoid fuels with ethanol in them. The ethanol adds oxygen to the fuel which can raise the exhaust gas temperature above the limit for the coating. Tests have shown a 50f to 80f increase in egt with ethanol in fuel. Setting the ignition timing is also very important. Retarded ignition timing can actually cause some of the fuel mixture to burn in the header causing severly high egt's. Many of the universal electric choke carburators run very lean on the cruise circuit, which can often cause some burning of the coatings, that is ANY POLISHED LOOKING COATING. Richen the mixture up a couple of steps, and this is usually enough to take care of the issue. If you have an intake gasket leaking, there can be one of the cylinders running very lean causing one tube to burn. |
| Q. | Can you coat headers that are already coated? |
| A. | Yes! We will charge an additional $20 for the service though. |
