Dave: Who did your ceramic coating work?  Also, has anyone out there tried the J.H.B.cermet coated housings? If so, how do they seem to work?

I got mine done by a company called Flame Spray here in San Diego.  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).  That engine only had a few hours on it, but the coatings were already coming off.
