Has anyone used the DIY header coatings like the ones at www.techlinecoatings.com? What were the results? Are there any other DIY coating suppliers?

I have used thier internal engine coatings for years with great results never tried there header coatings you need to bake the ceramikrome to a temp of 500 degrees for 1 hour and my wifes ovin isn't big enough for a set of full length headers so I decided to have them done some where else..besides that the rest of their line has preformed flawlessly..JUST FOLLOW ALL DIRECTIONS TO THE LETTER

Yeah, the Ceramakrome would be hard for me to cure, but they also sell Black Satin which is supposed to be an even better thermal barrier. It dries in air and then cures on your car.
