CERAMIC COATINGS 101 | |

BE COOL!! Ceramic coating significantly reduces the surface temperatures of your exhaust components. Ever do any work on a hot engine? If you happen to touch a hot ceramic coated exhaust part, you're a lot less likely to donate skin cells to your car's engine decor. Besides that, other parts that run in close proximity (i.e. spark plug wiring, starters, oil pans, sensors, electrical connectors, fuel lines, etc.) will experience significantly less damage due to heat fatigue. Your other engine components and accessories will last longer. In fact, overall under-hood temperatures will drop. In may cases, this will reduce the amount off heat being sucked into your engine's intake - a secondary performance effect. Take full advantage of that stock or performance aftermarket intake system! BE TOUGH!! Today's coatings are extremely durable. depending on the specific coating, the process used, and the type of part coated, coated parts can experience added life spans of double to 10-times that of uncoated parts. In normal use, one can expect near lifetime protection from rust and corrosion on exhaust parts coated by Cool Coat Inc. |

Do ceramic coatings really work? Using two A/M 32A-86D Aircraft Generator Sets, with 4-cylinder Detroit Diesel engines - one with an exhaust manifold and down-pipe bare and uncoated and one with our TurboX BLACK ceramic coating, we ran our own temperature test. The generators were started at the same time, load-banked for a short time, then set at idle prior to recording the readings. |

The
results were compared In this test, there was a 70F degree difference between the uncoated manifold and the TurboX BLACK coated manifold. This equated to over 22% decrease in surface temperatures. The TurboX Black manifold had been in service for about 3-Months.
