Ceramis Spray on Stainless/Chrome

[TR6speed]

I have a few stainless Steel and chrome piece on order for the engine bay and was wondering if I can apply the ceramic spray on them and if so, should I wipe them down with the ceramic prep first?

Hi Jack,

I have done some stainless steel as an experiment and it came out rather well.  I did one piece using Surface Prep first and the other cleaned with Adam's Stainless Steel Cleaner and I could not tell the difference in the results.  I have no way of knowing what the longevity will be since it was just a test and I only kept the pieces around for a about a month. I can tell you the coating took, looked great and there were no high spots.

 

I do like the Adam's Stainless Steel Cleaner.  I've found it easy to work with and it gets all the finger prints and such off rather easily and doesn't leave the surface feeling greasy.

I'd recommend the Surface Prep instead of the Stainless Steel Cleaner to prep it. The SSC leaves behind some protection so it may interfere with the coating's ability to bond.

Wish the ceramics would have been out when I had all that stainless in my engine bay in the old Vette.  That stuff scratches just by looking at it.  I finally bit the bullet and replaced it all with chrome.  Worth the money for sure.  Post up pics when you get it all done!
