Sealant on mufflers

[Bill D]

I`d like to preserve the shine on my mufflers/exhaust so I thought about applying a sealant to them. Should I bother or would the heat just burn it off? If it will last a reasonable amount of time, how about SG?

~One mans opinion / observation~



A polymer sealant like Klasse SG would probably be the best route, I read claims that it is ‘good’ to 390F (RonKs website)) not something that I’ve been able to verify though, as for durability I don’t know as this is not a ‘normal’ application for this product..



Rant: Why is it so hard to get tech info on Klasse products [OK I’m feeling better now]



~Hope this helps~

Thanks TOGWT, we`re in the same boat, I couldn`t even find the info you just gave. Maybe the Klasse distributor would be interested in having a forum here on Autopia like other manufacturers?

I protection my exhaust tips with a sealant (Zaino). I re-apply after every wash or light cleaning and wipe off residue (exhaust by-products) after each use ( not daily driven). Unless you are driving a mid- or rear- engine vehicle ( lucky you if you are :D) the heat factor should be minimal as TOGWT noted.

Works well for me. :wavey
