Should I Season My Exhaust?
I'm planning to have my headers and sidepipes ceramic coated. Is it better to run the pipes uncoated for a time to heat cycle them before coating or should they be coated before you contaminate them with exhaust products. I noticed that quite a few coating make no distinction between new or used exhaust. Should I take that to mean there really isn't an advantage one way or the other?

Most quality coaters will blast pipes with aluminum oxide or other abrasive media to remove all surface contaminants [like exhaust] . This is to promote adhesion for an even, lasting coating.
SwainTech in upstate NY did mine, inside and out. They have been bulletproof. |
