Volks: Same thing happened to me JP,On another project(1995),had 16valve intakes manifolds,valve cover,exhaust manifold,and down pipe JET-HOT coated it looked great until I drove it,the engine still looks grand,but from the exhaust manifold back is pitted and rusty. I was going to do my vanagon exhaust but changed my mind after seeing this,and used some high temp paint,after glass beading exhaust and cleaning. I'm still looking for a better solution.anybody?.............Bernie Campoli,Panama City,FL 1987 weekender150K,1989estfaliaCamper(Hanger Queen)64K -----Original Message----- From: John [mailto:johnpatt@WARWICK.NET] Sent: Monday, June 28, 1999 10:17 PM To: vanagon@GERRY.VANAGON.COM Subject: Re: Powder Coat ?????

I had an entire Syncro exhaust JET-HOT coated and it is now rusting in several places. While they will recoat it under warranty, the pipe removal, vehicle down time and shipping is my problem. I will not use JET-HOT again. High temp spray paint will have to do................ JP |
