LukeSandiefer Posted April 11, 2017 Report Share Posted April 11, 2017 I have a set of PC pipes that are pretty rough down by the cylinders. I was thinking of getting them ceramic coated, but some people say it will mess with the heat containment, resonance, and overall performance. Is this true? Polishing is not worth my time, as it takes hours upon hours. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gusto Posted April 12, 2017 Report Share Posted April 12, 2017 I was reading on this a while ago on the SnoWest forum. A company (CCPerformance Coatings) that deals with sleds as well as cars claims that having your pipes ceramic coated keeps the heat in and in some cases have increased rpms and power. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J-Madd Posted April 12, 2017 Report Share Posted April 12, 2017 It's not recommended to ceramic coat but I don't think you'll notice much if any performance difference. FWIW my record holding 650 cc has ceramic coated pipes. Sent from my STV100-1 using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

guns4children Posted April 12, 2017 Report Share Posted April 12, 2017 If you wanna see how they look black throw some plasti dip on them. I did mine and they still look pretty good after a year of riding. Sent from Planned Parenthood Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My local Powdercoat shop does the ceramic coating in a bright shiny silver. Looks great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
