I'm pretty sure I was the first to Jet Hot chrome finish my SS CB1100 header and it's now sever years old with about 5000 miles since coating. It looks as good today as the day I had it done. Before installing the header after coating it should be polished with Cape Cod polish and it will be a lot shinier. Cheers.

Hey Chip, it was your excellent post that gave me the idea to Jet Hot my pipes. I remember that you ground down the welding slagg before having them coated. Was there anything else, pre-coating, that you would recommend? As I said I'd do a little sanding if I were to do it again.
