Jere is a friend of mine. He only requires that you pay to have the headers stripped if you need them repaired, he will not strip them, and they cannot be welded with the coating on. We have Stahl headers on the car. He tells customers that if the headers are coated, send them to be stripped, then send them to him. NitroPlate will strip your headers and send them to Jere, and re-coat them after Jere repairs them. Considering what it takes to remove the coating, Jere would have to have a hazmat setup at his shop, the cost and hassle would not be cost effective. And NitroPlate coating does not seem to have harmed our Stahl headers.
