Default New exhaust powder coating for sidepipes

Gents - I recently had my sidepipes powder coated by Sullivan's Powder Coating (325-695-2691) in Abilene, TX.

The exhaust powder coating material is new stuff. I had my pipes done over Christmas and they came out great. If I understand correctly, the exhaust powder coat is only heat rated to 850 degrees but I've had no peeling or burning of the powder coat. I'm not sure why, but even though exhaust gas temps are typically 1350 degrees or so, this stuff doesn't burn off (Sullivan's has tested this stuff above 1350 degrees).

Anyway, the only color on the market right now is black. Maybe silver will be an option down the road.

As for cost, it was $125 + shipping. Also, in the interest of fair disclosure, the owner (Dean) is a family member.

Just an FYI that you now have another option beyond high temp paint and ceramic coating.
