They do = a lot of shipyard and aviation stuff here, but the will slip in a small job here and there. It was $250 for everything. BTW, this company alone has many different types of thermal coatings - so they are clearly not all the same. Will let you know how long it lasts. There was a ceramic coating on the rotor faces in the engine I got from Atkins (the one that was rusted out).
