Question: Where do you guys send parts to get "extreme heat" coated???

[Hot COCOAL]

I'm trying to keep my PPE manifolds from looking like cheap rusted pieces of crud.

So is there a high temp coatings GURU out there that everyone sends their parts too, or a shop somewhere?

Maybe even a known brand of Rattle can that can hold up to manifold heat???
Would BBQ paint work???

Just curious, I want to try and get this handled ASAP, my OCD's don't allow for rust on my vehicles

Thanks for the help

I have all my coating done by Lo-Ko Performance Coating. They are local to me but have always done a great job. I got my turbos, manifolds and hot pipes done by them 4 years ago and they still look good.

I sold mine and went back to stockers

I did all my stuff myself.

high heat powdercoat is the way to go

Ceramic coating is the way to go.. Pretty much anybody doing powder coating shld do ceramic the only difference is it goes on like paint before getting baked instead of powder.. It's a little pricey tho just for the paint...

When I worked for a komatsu dealer we would pull the manifolds off the coal dozers to jet hot and there coating held up really good.

Ive used stuff called VHT and it works good. it has been on a set of headers in my jeep for 3 yeasrs and still looks good. I got it at auto zone. it would be a cheap route, you can use the engine heat to set it up once sprayed on. we have an oven at work that i put them in though.

I was wondering about that stuff actually, seems like there's a few high temp options out there in a rattle can, and if it works I'm all for it, I just don't want to see it peel off in a month

havent had an issue yet in my LS1 jeep motorand ive done it on two sets.

Back when I only ran 1 machine all the time I took the time to keep it looking good. The only paint I found that would hold up on my D9s stack was a roll on Rustoleum high heat stove paint. Lasted over a year when I quit to work elsewhere.

This was something cheap to do, I'm sure there are better options out there.

I put a high heat (2000 degrees ) on my exhaust from orileys and it's held up fine for a year even exposed to the elements

I use VHT header paint on all my turbo exhaust housing & pedestals. So far it has held up good. I would like to use something better as I get more into it.
