Saw on here someone had used silver anti-seize to paint their exhaust manifolds. Anyone have experience with this?

No But slip plate is amazing makes them look new and lasts a long time google it.
Exhaust manifold paint
Is that slip plate graphite lubricant?
Al I use on cast iron. Seriously out lasts any coating I have tried.
Yes, dont use the spray, the tip clogs way to fast buy a quart. Put it on with a rag and rub it in lightly. Friend turned me on to it years ago amazing results.
Best product going for manifolds.

Is that slip plate graphite lubricant in the picture, it doesn't look like the spray can I see online? What prep work is needed before you apply?
Thanks so much
I dont use the spray cans they clog up way to fast. I just wire brush them and of course no grease. Brush it on lightly the rub off the excess. Easy

Great! Thanks again
Ray, is this stuff like Calyk in that it rubs off on your hands when working near it like when changing plugs? I used Calyk 20 years ago on my GTX and the manifolds still look nice but anytime I work around them I still get it all over my hands.
Once it is on its on and you can handle it not like silver Anti seize.
Looks great but to grey for me. I like the cast iron look. Depends on your preference, I guess.
Yeah it has to bake on the motor, and richens the color.
Not exactly raw cast iron though
