Default headpipe paint?

I bought my 2-into01 banshee pipe off ebay, and it had some cheesey black headerpaint on it or something, it smoked off after a half hour, so i got took it somewhere where they blasted it, and then did something called(i know some of you are familar with this) jet/jethot coated it. its a high temp coating, like powder coating, they use alot on things like, turbo housings, headers, etc. it didn't cost that much, it was $250 total(thats with my quad being powdercoated 2 different colors, the repair of an a-arm, and the jet coating). The place is called kind coatings, you can see their site, its www.kingcoatings.com, the guy who runs it is super resonable, honest, and they work quickly.

It's called ceramic coating. Similar to powder coating but different w/ different purposes.
