Can powder coating be done over ceramic?

[big_ben]

Does anyone know if powder coating can be done over ceramic coating on a manifold? I called a company here that does coating locally, and they said they don't know, they've never been asked that. But they said if the outside temps don't go over 500 degrees it can be done. So I guess I'm asking if anyone knows the outside temps on a manifold after ceramic coating.

Even with the cermaic coating the temps of the manifold are going to reach well over 500 degrees. You are looking at probably temps in the 800-900 degree range. Plus powder coating a manifold isn't really a option chose by many as it may induce cracking.

Thanks, I guess I'll just get the charge pipes coated then. I'm thinking about also getting my rims coated in a gunmetal finish. Then maybe a CF hood and other parts to match. That's a while down the road though.
