Title: Cerakote Glacier Black
Post by: dem3500 on March 23, 2016, 08:18:29 AM

i recently got into cerakote high temp coatings. the Glacier series is good to over 2000 deg f. this is the pipe for my personal bike. i plan to rivet the ESR name plate back on.

Looks good man. I've never used it but I hear it's pretty tough! A lot of guys use it for putting camo on guns

Ive mostly cerakoted gun parts but I did a few exhaust parts and it seemed to scratch easy.

Interesting. Curious to see how this holds up.  [MENTION=1175]dem3500[/MENTION] - say we wanted to protect a raw pipe, what options do we have there?

well theres a handfull of different high temp cerakote colors. the glacier series (black and silver only) are good for 2000 deg f. all the others which have a few more colors are good to 1800 deg f. theres clears too but there only rated for 1100 deg f and i havent done any research to see if thats hot enough. id say it would be fine on a pipe but not sure about the head tube. i honestly dont know. this summer i will do a little bit of hands on with a quality IR thermometer to see what gets to what temp.

i dont endorse cerakote but as of now there the only ceramic i use and i dont have any plans to change or even look elsewhere. there reputation speaks for itself.
