Flame Proof Coating, Flat Clear

Worked for me. I scuffed a crome pipe for an ATV with a 3m fiber pad. Did 3 thin cold coats. Then next day wrapped it in some cheap exhaust wrap good and tight. And gave that 3 cold coats. I did 2 warm up cool down cycles. It gets pretty smokey. Then took my atv for a good beat run it took probably half an hour for it to completely bake in. Nor did I do it properly. So the amount of smoke and time I blame on operator error and I expected it. I see exhaust temps of about 700 degrees after stopping. Probably tickles 1200 when I'm really romping on it.

Works as it is intended

Used this as a top coat for a drip torch, it sits close to the fire and takes heat and gas/diesel mix with zero issues, excellent product.

My Project: Respraying an exhaust manifold. (Manifold surface was blasted) Products used: VHT SP118 Flat White Primer, VHT SP102 Flat Black Paint, VHT SP115 Satin Clear Coat. Review of Product: VHT SP115 Satin Clear Coat This product worked very well and left a very nice satin finish on top of VHT Flat Black Paint (VHT SP102). Product was of good quality for value. This clear coat was applied to my exhaust manifold in an outdoor area with very little wind <5mph and humidity <15%. I applied this product 24 hours after paint, starting with a very light rough coat. I waited 15 minutes, then applied a wet finish coat, waited until it appeared to be setting about 10mins and then touched up hard to get areas. I had no problem with the clear coat having runs. I allowed 7 days for dry cure, and I followed the manufacturers instruction for curing the paint when on the vehicle. Has been 2 weeks and no sign of the paint burning off. I have driven the vehicle 750-1000 miles during this time. Had half can leftover. Manifold was hung and suspended during paint.

so far so good. had to cure it to get the coats so that a scrape would not peel it off. cured to the 400 degree temp, 600 degrees is the final cure temp... the 30min cure time, the Misses was not going to allow it. the VHT ACTUALLY SANDED AND BUFFED to a glass gloss finish. when dry its scent less, not so when shooting it. This product is worth the time and money spent utilizing it.

I bought this clear high temp paint not knowing what to expect but I am very pleased with it thus far. I used it on a pressure washer that I restored for a friend and unexpectedly he had to pick the pressure washer up the same day I painted it. I was expecting the heat to trash the paint but it didn't. The paint held up even though it had no time to cure. Very surprised indeed. I've painted a lot and VHT is a good choice when you have parts that get exposed to heat. Since that time I've used it on my Honda Goldwing valve covers and no peeling or wrinkles so I would say that it's a very good product for the money.

Painted surface continues to perform well on my aluminum intake manifold

Ehhh! Stuff always seems to peel off. Lots of prep but not great adhesion. Grrr!
