Thermo Tec Exhaust Wrap
Anybody use this stuff? Here is a link to the kit on ebay I'm thinkin about.

just wandering if anyone has used this kit? How does the black high heat coating look? Just want to know for sure that it doesn't mar the look of the wrap because I think it is made for more under the hood use.

I have. I didn't spend that much though. I won mine on a bid type purchase and not "buy it now." I think I paid around $35.
The first time I didn't use the coating and the wrap faded to gray/white at the hotest spots really quickly. This last time, however, I used it.
The spray doesn't go on quite as black as you would imagine. It's not like paint. It's more like a water proofing solution with some black pigment. There will be quite a bit of residual falling after you spray so I would recommend covering everything in your work area. Don't try coating while the pipes are on the bike and put at least 2 or 3 coats on them.
End result...I'm really very happy with it. Smells nasty for a while (but so does the untreated wrap) but worth it.
