C4 a-frames zoops or powder coat?

[Zefhix]

hey i'm not the only one in this thread using powdercoated control arms cough, cough, heh, heh

No..no you're not. My lowers are boxed and powdercoated as are my knuckles...and my rotor hats and my tie rods and my centerlink and my pitman arm and my idler arm and my sway bars........
Guess my POS is just gonna crap out on me on my first lateral-g attempt

hey, does this thread remind anyone of the crossdrilled rotors??

Zoops is actually a ceramic type of coating.

zoops works "alright" but if you ever get anything kinda nasty on it, you have to polish it out which takes off the zoops :(

Lateral-g attempt? E-gads! What if you like, get a stone chip on the car? Hey!!! I've got it! Powder-coat the exterior too!!!! Yeah, that's it! Maybe you could develop some really cool powder-coat compound to keep the tires looking nice?! I bet the car would run faster too!

Look, all I was doing was pointing out one FACT about the stuff, you can do what you want with your own car, it really is totally up to you. It is clear that the overwhelming majority of cars will never ever be driven hard enough to stress the components (and frankly, that's sad), but I will always stand by my statement. Do you check your oil? Brake fluid?

Peace,
Mark

My sarcasm, apparently, doesn't type out well. Guess you have to know me....
My post wasn't meant to be a shot at anyone.....so I won't even bother addressing yours. Try doing a little research on someone and what their doing before you type....good luck.

just remembered CarlC has powdercoated upper and lower tubulars and runs his at the track really hard more than often, I have seen it personally, he doesn't seem to have any problems either

No, it is not! I don't what Zoop is claiming, but it is a sealer. Actually, Zoop's state that it is a sealer on their website. A ceramic coating is applied by a heat process. Plasma coating is one type of process to apply a ceramic coating on a part.
