Here's the situation: I'm pulling our engine so as I can replace the rear main seal and last night when I took off the headers and y-pipe I discovered that burn through and corrosion are already penetrating the ceramic coating. These are perfect headers, JBA, though not the stainless steel versions, mild steel and I had cleaned them up real good set them to a coating business in Delaware and they again sand blasted them and coated them. The company wasn’t too bad on price, but I really don’t want to have to go through the process of shipping them off and getting them back again. I did call the company today and asked about their warranty and they said it was only on the coating itself as in if it was done wrong, but that they might trying to work something out. I’m supposed to call back and talk to the owner tomorrow. What about jut cleaning them up again myself and also having them glass beaded and using VHT paint (Very High Temperature Paint) to re-coat them. Has anyone ever had experience using this paint?
Well, the good news is this, I just spoke with the owner of the company that ceramic coated my headers and he informed me that during the time period of October last year, the month I had ours done, they had been using bad chemical for the coating process. He found out in February, and I'm one of only a few who've had problems. So I’ll be shipping them back to him tomorrow and he’s going to redo them
