Painted My Exhaust (Alum.Silver) Look!!
To : CAL_G35C1 / Z BOY
yes , i painted it it with high heat paint (1200d) temp paint. it is used to paint like big chevy blocks etc. so dont worry about the paint not withstanding your exhaust temp. took about 30 min or a lil longer but thats just cuz im like a clean freaks. i through like 3-4 bed covers (house bed covers) on the car and masked off the rear bumper to make sure no overspray hit the car. and i painted till the middle of the car. so if you look under the car you can tell it looks like the whole exhaust. well hope this helped guys if you want closer pics email me and i'll send.

Hi SB350, I did it a while back and get asked what exhaust I up-grade to, all the time.......I used a heat resistant, RUST-OLEUM Bright Coat, w/ Chrome cap.....It turns out like a nice Aluminum finish. Here's a pic of mine, Dave
I just refresh paint every few months or so.....ooops, forgot it was in my signature.....

thanx in advance
Well, I guess different strokes. I had a dual system fabricated with a Magnoflow crossflow muffler. I sprayed it flat black with high temperature paint to HIDE it. All you can see from the back are the tips. Just the way I like it.

Hi Lou, I like that look very much also....Never know, I might change it up once in awhile......If my car were black, black muffler without a doubt....Later, Dave

just sharing. it all depends on your color scheme and the effect you are trying to affect. blue batmobile is big on blue and black. in my opinion, bling is better, contrast is better, but that's just my preference.

Hi Z BOY, If you are referring to your car, why ask me? You've done an awesome job so far.........I think silver on black would look great too....I don't think Black on a Daytona Blue is a good match though....Just my opinion....Dave

Yeah, It looks great....I'm surprised I have'nt seen many previous posts of others doing it....I don't know what your muffler looked like when you got your Z, but mine looked dull and unfinished....It was a no-brainer......See you in the threads, Dave
ya, no brainer to me, too. stock muffler was dull and ugly. did you guys prep yours any before painting? i took my sander to mine; just hope i didn't remove any of the rust resistance.
Z BOY : I just cleaned mines good with towel/water&soap and dried it up , and applied paint coat. I did not sand. About ur rust coat situation , i really have no idea on that. im assuming as long as u didnt use a really thick grit you should be fine
