Powder coating maf and up pipe

[tbone87]

I still don't get it. So, it's not beneficial to have a polished surface under a mirror/highly reflective powder coat?

If not, I can't bring myself to etch my polished pipes after spending weeks to get the Whole motor to shine like a diamond. It was too much work to dump out for powder coating.

In your case look into shark hide.

What? Now what the hell is this stuff! This can get complicated. I'm beginning to think that the Home Depot has all the colors I need.

Or better yet.....seems like everyone likes it polished. And so do I.

It protects aluminum after its polished. For months without a tarnish or oxidation.

Here is some matte black. The valve covers are Bengal Red and the compressor cover is now done in Bengal Silver.

No, sadly, I wish it were....my engine is filthy....too embarrassed to show it.....needs cleaning real bad.....all put on hold during the time trying to save my dying Mother....it was the hardest 9 years of my life...just awful.......when I'm feeling a little better, I should start on the damn thing.....the interior, though, I fully restored, it looks brand new, with a real NOS passenger seat also......there's never been an asshole on it yet!

My '69 Corvette 350/400 engine used to be so clean and pretty you could eat off of it....but, like I said, life's tragedies get in the way sometimes......these guys with such beautiful engines, built for pure power and speed, should be greatly admired. With me, I should be admired with the largest stock of "Simple Green."
