Whatever this stuff on my pipes is, it isn't stainless and it isn't chrome. I guess it's aluminum...ceramic...something. Not Jet-Hot (if you do a search, I think you'll find a lot of negatives re. Jet Hot) but probably something similar.

The original stuff was kinda half-a$$ed and started rusting in between the pipes during the first year. I had the pipes (but not the headers) redone by LoKo Coatings in Chicago last year and they look great and seem to be holding up well. I can clean them with steel wool and chrome polish and am very happy with the whole deal.

Whatever this stuff is, it's probably very similar to what's available locally for you. I'd say the big variable is probably the prep prior to the application, so MY advice would be to check around with guys near you and have it done by someone who comes highly recommended.

Hope this helps,

Lowell
