Re: Painting Exhaust Manifolds
They will never rust because in MY opinion they have been "flame sprayed" with ALUMINUM giving them that whitish/silverish color.......The aeresol cast blast paint cosmetically covers the new "skin" and makes them appear more natural...............

Re: Painting Exhaust Manifolds
Chuck,
I'm guessing I can find a place in Phoenix to have them "flame sprayed". Anyone done this in AZ? Any idea of the cost? thanks, Dave

Re: Painting Exhaust Manifolds
So far I am unsuccessful in finding anyone to "Flame Spray" my exhaust manifolds here in the Phoenix area. Has anyone in the local area used this process?
thanks
