Exhaust Coating, Turbo X Blue

TURBO X�

Turbo X is a silicone ceramic coating designed to be applied primarily to exhaust components. When applied to exhaust systems, Turbo X will remain color stable at exhaust gas temperatures up to 2000�F. Due to its unique ceramic nature, the coating also functions as a very effective thermal barrier, with reduced thermal radiation characteristics. The coating cures to a very hard, durable surface with excellent adhesion. Turbo X is designed to be cured in an industrial oven. Corrosion and chemical resistance is only achieved after the coating reaches a full cure.

• Extreme temperature exhaust component coating designed especially for turbos.
  • Reduces temperature under the hood and on the exhaust manifold surface.
• Improves exhaust gas velocity, resulting in horsepower increase.
• Designed for single coat coverage. Dry film thickness of .001_ to .0015_.
  • Can be applied over a base primer coating such as PrevCor, MCS or HHBK.
• Solvent based.
  • Recommend full cure at 600�F for one hour.
  • Oven baking recommended.
  • Easy cleanup with Acetone or similar.
• Available in Satin Black (Part #TXBK) and Blue (Part #TXBL).

APPLICATION:

Clean metal using standard cleaning methods with Columbia Coatings Super Degreaser (SD-MTO25) and can even use a pressure washer with injector for the cleaner. Make sure the parts are rinsed well from chemical then blow the part of after washing. Let parts dry and then repeat process with a Non-Petroleum Solvent Based cleaner such as Acetone, MEK or Toluene if see additional cleaning is needed. Sandblast parts (ONLY WHEN DRY) with 10X EpiX Blasting MediaMP 70/100 Grit (EPIX), or 120 grit aluminum oxide. DO NOT USE GLASS BEAD!

• When done blasting blow excess dust from parts and handle with protective gloves to not transfer oil from hands to parts.
• Put parts in oven at 400 degrees and bake for 30 minutes to kill any contaminates that may be missed from blasting.
• Let parts cool to room temperature and use an air brush or touch up spray gun such as Columbia Coatings Ceramic Application Gun (CCAG2) or equivalent to a system that allows for application of a thin film build of approximately .001� to .0015.
• Avoid excessive buildup of material as this can lead to loss of adhesion. DO NOT APPLY SECOND COAT AFTER THE COATING DRIES.

Available in Quart and Gallon size.
