Title: Black exhaust with chrome muffler Post by pollpegj on 08/09/07 at 15:54:56 Has anybody done a sportster muffler with black header. My header on my savage is rusty and really bothers me. Im thinking of black wrap with chrome muffler or black paint. |

Title: Re: Black exhaust with chrome muffler Post by pollpegj on 08/09/07 at 18:09:33 the header is already pitted and rusty. Bluing isnt going to bother me. |
Title: Re: Black exhaust with chrome muffler Post by serowbot on 08/09/07 at 18:29:53 I've seen a few here painted black. Looked pretty good! Try barbecue grill spray paint for a flat finish, or I bought a can of "dull gloss engine paint" at auto-zone to paint my cylinder. Wrap can be tricky from what I've read. It can give a mean look though, if you like that. |
Title: Re: Black exhaust with chrome muffler Post by Savage_Rob on 08/10/07 at 06:06:51 I had mine ceramic coated satin black and used hi-temp black paint on my MAC muffler. I like the ceramic a lot. |
Title: Re: Black exhaust with chrome muffler Post by srinath on 08/10/07 at 07:31:18 I did the whole HD muffler and savage header in ceramic black powder coat (evidently its a liquid not a powder) and while the pitted and rusty header had the paint/powder stick to it, the shiny chrome on the HD muffler pretty much had the black crack and want to flake off. I am getting to the point where I should do it to another set, and may leave the muffler as chrome. Cool. Srinath. |
Title: Re: Black exhaust with chrome muffler Post by Savage_Rob on 08/10/07 at 12:26:18 Yeah, I roughed up the chrome before painting the muffler. If I get it ceramic coated, he always sandblasts prior to coating and baking. |
