i came to the exhaust system of my project and some of it was far too pitted and corroded. i decided to paint the exhaust instead of rechroming it. i had the chrome removed and began working on the prep by sandblasting.
i want a gloss finish but i know the only way to get gloss black on exhausts is to black chrome it. instead, i came by some house of kolor hi temp on eastwood's site.
the paint claims it does not need to be baked for curing and leaves a semi gloss finish. it also claims it is resistant up to 1400F. i know HOK's reputation is very good but has anyone personally worked with this stuff? $70 a quart is too steep to experiement with.
my other option was to use some duplicolor/vht 1200F flat black on the headpipes and possibly 500F gloss black engine enamel on the mufflers. anyone try engine enamel on the muff's with good results?
thanks
