Re: Ceramic Coating v. Heat Wrap
I have applied both,but haven't put the ceramic to test as I have yet to rebuild the engine,having painted it on the turbo exhaust side plus manifold. The wrap I have used and it does reduce the heat. The surface needs to be treated for the ceramic paint to stick

This ceramic paint sounds like it could be the ideal thing for something I have in mind.sierra3dr wrote:I have applied both,but haven't put the ceramic to test as I have yet to rebuild the engine,having painted it on the turbo exhaust side plus manifold.

What type of treatment is advised please? Would a dip in vinegar do the trick or does it need something more sophisticated by way of preparation?

Landrovers and Welding go together like Bread and Butter. And in the wet they are about as structurally sound

Re: Ceramic Coating v. Heat Wrap
I don't really know as I haven't furthered it. I know that it faded off,which I surmise was due to not cleaning the surface,i.e surface rust.JPB wrote:This ceramic paint sounds like it could be the ideal thing for something I have in mind.

Re: Ceramic Coating v. Heat Wrap
Hmm, so an ideal candidate for an overnight bath in vinegar then.

Re: Ceramic Coating v. Heat Wrap
Well, the question is now irrelevant as Double S will void exhaust warranties if heat wrap is used. Nuts.
Looks like i have a choice between a cool(er) engine bay or a lifetime warranty.
