Header Question
#1
just bought a like new shorty header, but it was painted with a high heat engine enamel...its ford blue, with a tonne of runs + looks bad with the yellow!

I'm gonna sandblast it at home this weekend but the question i have for u guys is I heard of a shop called (could be wrong) HTC or something like that, that will ceramic coat parts, i think its in waterloo...

Im in windsor, does anyone know anything about this or does someone know of someone in my area who can do something comparible for me?

About the Ceramic Coating yes it was over $300 , it still looks like brand new. They did a nice job. A bit pricy tho but no regrets , it's done for life. :)
