Ceramic Coating (Cerakote®)

black cerakote ceramic coated bst intake manifold for audi

Some metal parts need more than a good-looking finish. They need a coating designed for heat, performance, and demanding environments.

For Example:

  • Headers
  • Intake Manifolds
  • Exhaust pipes
  • Sled “Y” pipes, exhaust and silencers
  • Catalytic Converters
  • Exhaust manifolds
  • Mufflers- Outside only
  • Exhaust tips

Galaxie Powder Coating offers CERAKOTE® ceramic coating in Lumby, BC for select automotive, motorcycle, powersport, and high-heat metal parts.

Both powder coating and ceramic coating can protect and improve the look of metal parts, but they are not used for the exact same purpose.

Powder coating is often used for general metal finishing, colour, protection, and durability on items like rims, railings, patio furniture, fire pits, automotive parts, and custom metalwork.

Ceramic coating is often used for higher-heat applications, especially exhaust parts, headers, manifolds, and performance components.

The right choice depends on the metal, the part, the temperature exposure, the final look you want, and how the item will be used.

Not sure which one you need? We can help.

CERAKOTE® ceramic coating may be suitable for headers, exhaust pipes, exhaust manifolds, intake manifolds, mufflers, exhaust tips, catalytic converter components, sled Y-pipes, sled exhaust parts, silencers, motorcycle exhaust parts, quad parts, truck parts, automotive performance parts, and other high-heat metal components.

If you are not sure whether ceramic coating is right for your part, contact Galaxie Powder Coating and we can help you review your options.


Headers are one of the most common applications for high heat ceramic coating.

Header ceramic coating can help create a cleaner, more finished appearance while supporting heat management and protection goals. It is a popular option for customers working on performance vehicles, restorations, custom builds, and automotive upgrades.

If you are looking for header ceramic coating in Lumby, Vernon, or the North Okanagan, Galaxie Powder Coating can help.


Exhaust parts deal with high temperatures and hard use.

Exhaust ceramic coating is commonly used for exhaust pipes, tips, manifolds, mufflers, and related components. It can help protect parts while creating a more finished, professional appearance.

Ceramic coating is a popular option for custom exhaust projects, motorcycle exhaust systems, truck and automotive exhaust parts, sled exhaust components, performance builds, and restoration projects.

Contact us to discuss your exhaust ceramic coating project.


Motorcycles, quads, sleds, and other powersport machines often have parts that are exposed to heat, weather, grime, and regular wear.

CERAKOTE ceramic coating can be a great option for certain high-heat motorcycle and powersport components, especially exhaust-related parts.

If your project involves a motorcycle, sled, quad, or custom powersport part, we can help you decide whether ceramic coating or powder coating is the better fit.


Ceramic coating colour options may vary depending on the product, part, and intended use.

Common ceramic coating finishes may include black, silver, clear, grey tones, specialty finishes, and high-heat coating options.
