ceramic coated firepot for quads or any brand

[zoecat]

hello to all

i have a quad mt vernon ae insert. has anyone had a ceramic coating applied to their fire pot, the same that is applied to car headers, or another ceramic product.
i would think that the minerals and impurities that start to build up on the fire pot, that i have to scrape off every week or so should wipe off with a cloth. from what i have read the heat should be reflected off the fire pot and probably increase the fire temp and efficiency. if i am completely off the mark here let me know. i may have too much time on my hands to be thinking of stuff like this. any and all feedback will be appreciated. great forum. great knowledge. great people.

thanks

WTH, gotta be worth checkin' out, you talking about getting a new burnpot coated, then changing them out? or pulling yours, cleaning, coating, baking, putting back in service? Possible project for the summer? Not trying to put up roadblocks, sounds interesting. Any ideas on cost? What about return? Let's kick this around a bit.

There was a member talking about this here last year. I think it was with the jethot coating. Not sure if he ever followed up on it. But I would be interested too!

That was in my plans for next year... I'd like to get the upper baffle in the firebox coated as well... the ash should just fall right off. I have a vendor at my hot rod show that does high temp coatings... pretty pricey but I'm going to ask him about it anyway.
