Just redid my works pipe. I will add "post heat" photos after this weekend.

Step one - white metal blast
Step two - scotch brite and oil
Step three - install and final wipe down

That turned out pretty damn nice!

Is that a Clarke tank? How do you like it?

Thank you
Sure is a Clarke tank. The gas cap failed in under 4 hours of operation but I think it might have something to do with the U4.4. That shit seems to eat everything. The fitment was okay. I would recommend their pad kit. All in all I would buy it again

Looks very good, but they really pop once you do the re-heating on the seams! I personally like to leave the black in the lettering on the badge for the modern PC pipes.

Killer! Can you better describe the "white metal blast" process?? The only media I've used in my blast cabinet is glass bead... is that what you did, or a different media/process??

Now take a torch to all of the welds and blue them up and it will look mint.
