also can powdercoating be "masked" like paint? I have an idea for a set of rims...

crzycowboy said:Well you have two choices. You can buy Silver line stack system, which you can get with a Black Stainless Steel stacks. It's a nice system. Or if you know of any powder coaters, you can purchase one of our plain stacks through a distributor, and have your powder coater finish the stack for you. I know that a few people have done this, and so far so good. There is 1000* powder coating, but not all powder coaters do this. One other thing I've learned, is to make sure they prep the stack correctly. Hope this helped!
Pangela said:Thanks that did help actually. What does something like the Silver Line Stack System run? 6" mitre cut stacks. And is the black stainless a glossy? or what does that look like.
Stack prep sounds like a good idea. I don't want black paint chips flying off...
And as to your knowledge... the 1000* powder coating, has held up to this point, correct?
Or, I've seen black chrome, and I do like the look. Do you carry these or know who might?
crzycowboy said:I have no clue how much silver line exhaust is....LOL I'm with Grand Rock...and we make our own exhaust...LOL LOL :hehe: Yeah Stack prep is important for that reason, plus you dont want spots on it that looks like it boiled off. (that was the discription given to me once) and yes it has held up. I have a distributor in California that has a set of 6" miters powder coated black.
I don't think you've seen black chrome stacks. Most likely a smoked stainles, like the ones silverline offers. If they were black chrome, I'd like the name of the plating company that did it. I have looked for a long time for a plating company to plate Black Chrome on exhaust tubing. I always get the same answer "It will not hold up to the heat" With the stacks getting over 500* at times, depending on your driving style, the black chrome will just start to turn funky brown colors. Or the best thing to do, which I forgot to mention, was mentioned above, have someone ceramic coat the stacks in black. I'm sure they probably have different lusters you can choose from.

edgerat said:you could buy the stacks from Grand Rocks distributors and I have a chromer that I use that is in California that does a flippin' sweet black chrome. Its not much more than triple-show chrome
