Title: Black Muffler .
Post by Cory on 04/20/08 at 17:58:48

Hey everyone how goes it ? my se muff is doing fine but my neighbor his discolored a bit so we decided to take that se muff of his and get some black 2000 degree heat resistant paint and spray paint it we put about 6 coats on it and we are gonna let it cure for about a week but man that black muffer looks sweet on his bike we put it on long enough to look at it i am considering doing the same to mine . and it only costs us 6 bucks for the paint . I am gonna have some pics up soon when we get it mounted on the bike so you guys can check it out see what ya think it's a cheap and easy way to get rid and prevent any blueing or discoloration.

The high temp paint looks good when it is first done.  However, it does tend to fade and discolor in under a year.  This is based on a a buddy of mines use on the header and mufflers of his '82 CB1000 (red, oxidized quick).  There is a powder coating method called Jet-hot that will withstand very high temps with out any discoloration.  It would cost about $300 to have an entire exhaust system Jet-coated.  Even if you have to repaint your muffler every year, you are still money ahead over 49 years...

Post pics!  I wanna see!
