where did you get it done & how much did you pay?
Had it done by Cam Coat in Warrington seem like a good set of lads, it cost me £120 plus the vat. Picked it up last Friday then called round to see me mate Geoff at Zoot scoot. As for durability only time will tell !Spud wrote:where did you get it done & how much did you pay?

I have been been running a ceramic coated exhaust for about a year. Still looks new after a little rub or two with Mother's polish.

I have a BGM Clubman, and wanted to keep it looking good, and make it last. I sent it to Zircotec and had it ceramic coated in black. I looks the dogs, and after 1000 miles, it is as good as new. Downside, it cost almost as much as the Clubman! I still think it is value though, plus the way it loses heat is unreal! It is cool enough to handle within a couple of minutes of stopping, making working on it a doddle (and no blisters/scars!) Check out their website, www.zircotec.com plus this video shows what it does in very simple terms http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kuj4mp6__IM
Expensive, yes, but from my experience, well worth it.
