I have heard the Swaintech White Lightning exhaust coating is supposed to be one of the best. I am going to have them coat my cast iron manifolds and 304 SS exhaust tubing that runs through the engine bay after I break my engine in.

It only comes in white and it's not cheap, however, it is different than 99% of the exhaust coatings out there. They have a good informational website.

Opinions welcomed!
