Protect Your Vehicle’s Components With Ceramic Coating

You’re very meticulous about the look of your car. You hand wash it regularly, and it’s never without a wax coating to protect its beautiful exterior. Inside, the dash is dust-free, the seats are immaculate, and any gravel that was dragged in has long been vacuumed from the mats.

Now, it could be time to look at some of the other areas of your vehicle that might not be getting the same amount of attention—namely, those critical exhaust components that are regularly exposed to abuse.

Here are some of those parts and the reasons to consider ceramic coating:

Headers, exhaust pipes, and turbo parts are exposed to corrosive road chemicals, extreme heat, and internal exhaust gasses. And they are expensive to repair. The right coating can help you avoid the effects of these threats to your vital components.

In addition to preventing rust on your exhaust parts, some coatings can protect them from rocks, dirt, and other debris that have found their way onto the road. Ceramic coating can be a valuable weapon in the fight against the enemies of component longevity—heat, chemicals, and gasses.

As you probably already know, your components can get very hot and then cool down, putting them through a thermal cycle that can weaken the metal. Turbo housings, for instance, can go from red hot to green cool quite quickly. Other parts are susceptible to heat concentration because of their shapes.

Ceramic coatings can help reduce both the thermal cycle and the surface temperatures, adding life to your turbo and exhaust parts by preventing metal from degrading.

Ceramic coated components may have an enormous practical advantage over non-coated parts, but there is an aesthetic side to them as well. 

Also, the variety of available colors in ceramic coating provides an opportunity to create a customized look for your vehicle that makes it stand out from the crowd.
