Consider doing it yourself. Go to techline coatings for the best material. I take mine to the sandblaster to get a killer job of sand blasting. Then you buy a $30.00 air brush and it works great. I also did mine on the inside that most people dont do. This prevents corrosion since most corrosion is caused by heat, exhausts rusts from the inside out not the other way. You'd be surprised how many do not do the insides. I believe you are wasting your money if you dont.

I had so much fun I went to Harbor Freight and bought a way cool Sand Blasting cabinet for $169.99. When I got to the check out desk, they had reduced it to $129.00. We found the proper Alum Oxide and now I do all my own bearing coatings, and engine coatings. My anal retentive nature is so pleased!

I was a consultant to the big shops that do this kind of metal prep. You would be surprised how easy it is to do. If you need help call or email me.
