Anyone here had any experience of powder coating exhausts ?
Is it even possible ?

Not sure about powder coating, but this company in Warrington does ceramic coating

Thanks.
Probably very expensive but I'll look into it.

Generally they don't ceramic coat used exhaust systems because they cannot guarantee the finish.

A friend of mine just got his TERMIGNONIs done on his 916SPS
The company is a spinoff from the nuclear industry.
Good for up to 900 degrees.

Mine were done at Camcoat in Warrington using their Cermakrome product.
And on the bike,
Bike's not had a lot of use this year but the finish is still pretty much the same. Cost about £150 (ish) with carriage.

Mine looked just like Dave's when I had then ceramic coated. Cerachrome outside, black ceramic inside. On used pipes. They got sandblasted before the coating. Now, the finish is like dull alloy, old Triumph or Norton cases.
