Strong Finish

Everyone wants to have a strong finish when it comes to their headers. Our preferred finish, Metallic Ceramic Thermal Barrier Coating (MCTBC) protects and extends the life of headers by creating a thermal barrier which significantly lowers under the hood temperatures and protects the substrate metal from thermal fatigue. After MCTBC is applied, it is polished with a vibratory finishing process that produces a high luster aluminum appearance. The polishing process compresses and activates the coating creating a surface which is harder and 60% more corrosion resistant than an unpolished surface. The coating is easy to maintain and will last for years under normal operating conditions.
