Don't see why it wouldn't work inside as well.
Would certainly reduce internal rust. The pipes need to be blasted before treatment. Any (and ALL) imperfections will show up. Then an acetone wipe to remove finger prints, etc. Spray on a thin layer of the ceramic "paint" and bake at 500 degrees for an hour. I did it in the kitchen oven - no noticible odor other than the smell of a very hot oven! Lastly, when cooled, burnish with fine steel wool to clean off the outer residue, and produce a beautiful luster. Not quite chromed looking. There is also a black version that is a little different. Clean and spray, then start the engine and bring the pipes up to temp to bake it on. Check the description in AS&S catalog.

I believe the long term benefits of the ceramic coating will totally offset the costs. Probably true if you farm it out, but the DIY bottle cost $19.95 in AS&S catalog... Two questions on the DIY application. How does it compare to the professional application which is bead blasted before application and baked on? Can the DIY be applied to the inside of the pipes as well as the outside? Bob Reed www.kisbuild.r-a-reed-assoc.com (KIS Builders Site) KIS Cruiser in progress...Slow but steady progress....
