Oilsmoke Posted January 9, 2004 Report Posted January 9, 2004 I am looking for a long lasting paint for my Steel T5's won't 500 Degree be enough? Gloss Balck or satin no flat. Quote
bigboybanshee Posted January 9, 2004 Report Posted January 9, 2004 I used 500 degree paint once before and it bubbled up...weird because my pipes never got near the 500 degree mark. I would highly recommend finding a different method, maybe jet hot coating...Hope this helps! Quote
ledofthezep Posted January 9, 2004 Report Posted January 9, 2004 I used some High Temp Engine paint from O'reillys...rated to like 1500 degrees or some shit like that. They only had flat black. Worked great & looked good. Quote

SICK BOY Posted January 10, 2004 Report Posted January 10, 2004 If you check out some motorcycle catalogs you can buy this brush on ceramic paint that is suspose to last for ever,but I never used it.I think they sell it at www.jpcycles.com Quote
raxen Posted January 10, 2004 Report Posted January 10, 2004 Eastwood sells high temperature paints for your application in just about any color you need. Quote
akpopeye Posted January 11, 2004 Report Posted January 11, 2004 ive dealt with POR before..good company.......the stuff works great Quote
Oilsmoke Posted January 11, 2004 Author Report Posted January 11, 2004 Hey Popeye Did you use there Black Velvet Hi temp paint if so was in flat or gloss in finish? Quote
locogato11283 Posted January 11, 2004 Report Posted January 11, 2004 my brother just has his toomeys powdercoated with heat temp paint. it leaves them glossy looking and they still look really good. before that he had like 1500 degree heat temp spray paint on them, it didnt work worth shit. i think if you are gonna be riding mud and shit that powdercoating is the way to go. cost him 70 bucks for sandblasting and coating.

Nighty Posted March 25, 2004 Report Posted March 25, 2004 I am going to sandblast them and use blank laquer heat resistant up to 650 degrees Celcius. and then hope it holds Quote
sandman121383 Posted March 26, 2004 Report Posted March 26, 2004 uesome high temp engine enamel. . . let it dry good with a heat lamp would work best and do it a few times,the more caots the better Quote
stealthawd Posted March 26, 2004 Report Posted March 26, 2004 I used 1200 deg exhaust paint and it SUCKED. Right at the motor mount flanges, it started flaking off after very mild riding. Went riding a lot more serious the next day and it isn't sticking worth a crap. I'm looking at ceramic coating them...just need to find a local place... Quote
rocketman28 Posted March 26, 2004 Report Posted March 26, 2004 eastwood will have the spray cans you need, it might still flake @ the exhaust cause its kinda hot there, or ceramic coating depends on how much money you wana spend! Quote
Nighty Posted March 26, 2004 Report Posted March 26, 2004 hmm crap.. this means my 650 degree celcuis stuf is not going to hold... Quote
