    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

Factory Suzuki black exhaust coating

Anyone have any tips on restoring the Factory Suzuki black exhaust coating?
 
It?s black chrome so unless there is someone doing it in secret in some remote corner of the earth, sad to say it?s not repairable. There are ceramic coatings but they do not shine like black chrome. I?d love to be corrected on this but I won?t hold my breath.
 
Thanks. I just did a little looking around. Looks like it is very costly, (three times that of regular chrome plating), and produces lots of hazardous waste. I didn't search long enough to know whether or not someone does it. Maybe China does it? They seem to have little regard for the environment, so I've heard.
 
Not to mention the fact that most chrome shops won't do used exhaust systems for risk of polluting their dipping baths with carbon crud.
 
I tried on mine. The more you rub the less black and the more chrome it is. Naval Jelly will get the rust, a thin coat of black paint will do wonders from the manifold back and it hasn't burned off. THis is the best I could do:

Yes, that product has been mentioned on here before with good reviews.
