Rust. The engine was painted with the manifolds on haphazardly so when the engine was fired the paint burned off and the manifolds started to rust pretty much since day one. If you don't liek that look have them coated...

I don't think powder coating can take the heat of an exhaust manifold. A ceramic coating would be a better choice???

The hi-temp powder coating is ceramic based. There seems to be two shades of gray for exhaust manifolds, I think the darker shade looks more like fresh cast iron.

I used Eastwood Exhaust Manifold paint then top coated them with the correct engine color so when the paint burns off some remains around the exhaust studs and bolts.
