I've found that to be the trick, just work with a firm which will back their service. In my case, I was unhappy because they had use ceramic beads to blast the side pipes before coating. Ok, good. What was not so good is how about 500 of the ceramic beads shot out of the pipes when we first started the engine. They had failed to shake the beads out of the baffles. Can you imagine if one of those beads through back pressure or some act of god gotten tossed into a cylinder? An 800 dollar ceramic job would have killed a 20K engine. So yeah, I was not exactly all smiles....
