Manifold Paint

[Alan G]

Whats best to use guys?

I've tried VHT and it's a pile of swank... burned off almost straight away!

Did I hear BBQ paint is quite good?

I was told that as well Alan

VHT is good if you prep the manifold properly, bare metal/degreased etc, many people think they can just spray it on any old shit and forget about it. Barbeque black is the favorite tho.

High temp spray from Halfords is good . It's stayed on mine + my mates manifolds perfect which is a first

I agree, if you take your time with the prepping than it will last. The same with any painting or spraying you are doing

I used that Halfrauds stuff and it seems to be more than fine so far?

[Rick]

the vhy paint i used was pants it turned oily when heated :-s?

 

in all fairness if you havent got that ceramic finish then its just gonna burn off anyway

its 816' instead of the normal 650' which the vht paint is

it also gives a nice matt/rough effect.

make sure you heat the manifold before applying which makes alot of difference.
