Sent from my SM-A310Y using Tapatalk Uninflammorable? I've always used high temp ceramic paint from any parts store. Always held up ok. Or you can powder coat them if you can find some that will. Most powder coat guys don't want to mess with cleaning them. The pipes really don't get that hot. Not like a 4 stroke head pipe.

But I knew what you meant as you can see I referenced high temp ceramic paint. I think plasti dip sounds like a grand plan. You guys and your questions. You ask, we tell. Then you come back with "well, what about this, what if I did that?....bla fucking bla! Go try your ideas and come back with results then! Don't ask advice because you don't know and then question the advice given. FFS Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keno Posted April 15, 2017 Report Share Posted April 15, 2017 Plastidip FTW. It is Uninflammorable, when cured. Before, curing, it is crazy flammoratable Sent from my XT1585 using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AZBIKE_460 Posted April 22, 2017 Report Share Posted April 22, 2017 A great alternative to chrome or raw pipes is to use gun blue. Looks really good and protects from corrosion then when you go to burn out the carbon just re blue it. if you run a pretty rich mixture of castor plus leaded fuel I get a TON of carbon build up in the expansion cone/header bad so I frequently clean my pipes. Just a little trick for old school/factory pipe look and easy to maintain for running castor n leaded if you need it. If not then it's still a great unique look and function Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
