I had my side pipes aluminized. It's sprayed as molten aluminum. It ends up very rough but snow white. I had them done originally in 1970 and I had them redone once. The reason I had them redone is someone melted a sneaker on one of them. I should have just touched it up with high temp white since they were still in great shape except for the melted rubber. The second time the job was not as good and some has peeled off. I now just touch those places up every know and then. So it's been 46 years and about 50,000 miles.
