Thinking of refinishing that oem muffler?
Don't waste your time on "BBQ" paint, I did. I tried three major brands and all blistered within 15 minutes. I have posted pictures in my profile since I was so excited about the results from using Por-20 High Heat "Manifold Gray" paint. This stuff is great, and you can brush it on! Thanks All for the great info's. Ruben http://www.pelicanparts.com/gallery/rrivera |

Looking good Ruben!
Are you gonna keep the valence off? I actually need to redo my valence, because the paint burned off (lifted & peeled). Maybe I should just remove it! ------------------ Chris C. 73 914 2.0 70 911E Targa campbell.chris@gte.net |

I am planning to put the valance back on.
The ones I have are the fiberglass version, they seem to dissipate heat very well and have had no problems with the paint on them. Thanks, Good Luck |

Ruben,
That is a beautyful car. I only hope mine looks half that good when I'm done. Thanks for the tip too, I put VHT high temp and only ran the car a few times before the muffler looked old and ratty again; and it's really BRAND NEW. ------------------ Dave 1970 914/6 1995 Golf GTI-VR6 1996 Passat TDI my gallery [This message has been edited by David McLaughlin (edited 09-07-2001).] |

www.por15.com
FYI...I've heard from the autobody forum that zero-rust is a similar product as por-15, is cheaper, holds up better, and easier to apply. I just ordered my gallon. |

Good looking car Ruben,
That's one of the nicest "red" 914's seen. I'll keep your info about the POR-20 in mind. I repainted my headers several weeks back with a high-temp paint. As soon as the car is running I'll know if it was worth it or not. Regards, ------------------ Gerard 74-914 2.0L 3D914 rodrigos6@juno.com |
