I was just wondering if anyone has ever sprayed high temp rust o lium on their alumized piping if they cant afford stainless at the time? Just wondering if it would slow the rusting down on seems, welds, etc or if it would just be a waste of time.

Thanks

I used VHT flameproof on my exhaust, first attempt without proper prep and it started flaking off big time. My second attempt with a degreaser and scrubby pad seems to have worked, better the prep job the better results in the end. I cannot speak of the rustolium but I have used vht for several projects and all are holding up great. The welds may bleed thru eventually with rust and such, if so wire brush them clean and re-apply.

 

I've had BBQ grill paint on my exhaust's for a while (I prepped it properly and have had no rust issues

 

cold galvanizing spray for welds is the ticket

 

where can you get cold galvanizing spray?

would it work on all the piping?

 

i painted my custom exhaust on my ranger with high temp paint and it has worked great at keeping rust away. i have to repaint it every couple years just to keep it looking nice but ive been happy with the results.

 

I just wire wheel daily.

 

x2??

 

good for everything- grainger or any reputable weld shop

 

X2 on the High heat BBQ paint. I prepped and painted my catback system a few weeks before it was installed. Still have to touch a few spots after the winter but still looks pretty good after 2 winters.
