Mike, I had them do a 4-1 pipe for a Pro Stock bike I ran in 1992. They did fine work. I'm looking to find someone closer. Looks like I'll buy the product and apply it myself. The bulk of the work is cleaning and prepping. A satin finish is what I'm looking for. Thanks. George

2 manufactures of the coating

techline coatings in texas ...they offer a consumer grade , and a professional grade and must have a business in order to buy the professional grade .

NIC industries in oregon .

these are the 2 major companys who make it . there are little suppliers who resell it , but buy it from the company that makes it , it has a limited shelve life .

if your just looking or a satin black or something use NIC's product , it is air dry and is pretty user friendly .

George:
I looked at this sites video. http://www.cerakotehightemp.com/

Pretty straight forward. Thanks

it is a pretty simple product , but its very high solids it runs pretty quick if its alittle to heavy .  when you get it you will see how much stuff settles in the bottom , mix well , shoot a few light coats and you should be good ...... the only one that needs attention after the cure is the polished ceramic one , it should be done in a vibratory polisher to get the polished look , i have seen guys hand polish but the tumbler is best .

also , prep wise use aluminum oxide , dont use sand or other types of blast media .

take your time and im sure you will be fine , its not that hard

George:
I had a friend shoot the zoomies and covers last week. It went on well and looks great!

I have more than half of the product left if anyone is interested? It's Glacier Black.

I'm located at the crossroads of I-55 and I-72.

George
