ceramic coating pipes in AK

[Glaciershaker]

Anyone around the Anchorage area ceramic coat pipes down there and do a good job? Looking to have it done. I'm in FBKS. I had someone do it here and it all flaked off on the first ride once it got hot. Then they sandblasted a nice hole for me also before giving it back to me.

Thanks,

GS

MYTOYS, what kind of price did they give you for your pipe? I called them last week and talked to some guy who sounded like he hated his job and he told me $40 for the y-pipe, $40 for the can, and $500 for the single pipe! The can and y-pipe are reasonably priced, but $500 for a single pipe!? That sounded like a rip-off to me.... So just curious to see what everyone else is paying there...

I had my Y pipe and pipe done there for $120, I think you heard them wrong or he was pullin your leg.

Is that with prep/media blasting?

 

[Skidmarks]

Yes, all prep & blasting. We first burn out all oil & contamiates in the pipe, then rough blast with 40/60 green dimond media. We then try to get all the factory weld splater off, then hand sand with 180 grit paper, then media blast again with 120 grit aluim. oxide. I also check for any cracks or nessesary welding that needs done. Smaller cracks & touch-up welding (Tig process) are free. After this is done, we put a ceramic insulator inside the pipe to hold heat in it. Lastly, we put two coats of Cermakrome on the outside. It is then baked at 500 degress for 1 hour, then put into a vibratory polisher for 20 minutes. Lastly we hand buff with aluminum polish (with Mothers Aluminum Polish). A lot of works goes into each pipe.
I hope this explains it all but if you have any further questions please call. We give a 10% discount to all Snowest Memeber.

Havent had anything coated from APC in a while, but now ive got a triple that needs some BLING!. How much for a set of SRX pipes? $330?

 

[RBSDriver]

Thanks for the reply Mark, I don't know who told me 500 for just the pipe over the phone, maybe he was pulling my leg but anyhow, I'll be making it up your way from ER in a week or so to drop it all off.

My pipe and can has already been blasted just has a few spots here and there that need some touching up and some pitting from all the rust that was previously there... but most of the prep i think is all done. .. See ya in a week or 2
