Description

Genuine Raptor · Part no. RFLFR/AL

Safety: Danger. Extremely flammable aerosol. Pressurised container: may burst if heated. Causes serious eye irritation. May cause drowsiness or dizziness. Repeated exposure may cause skin dryness or cracking. Read the label before use.

Raptor Flameproof Flat Red is a 400ml aerosol with heat-resistant ceramic pigments, rated up to 1000°C, for giving exhaust manifolds, downpipes, silencers and hot engine-bay brackets a flat red finish. It resists oil and other car fluids and is made not to blister, flake, crack or peel.

Good to know

• Red or black for an exhaust? Both share the same 1000°C ceramic formula, so it is down to looks: red suits a show engine bay, while black hides soot and heat staining better than bright colours.
• How should the metal be prepared? Strip rust and old paint back to clean, degreased bare metal. Ordinary primer burns off under exhaust heat, so don't put a standard primer under it.
• How do I cover pipes and bends evenly? Use the spot nozzle in short passes from all sides, letting each light coat flash off before the next, rather than soaking one side.

Which one?

For a black exhaust, Raptor Flameproof Flat Black 400ml (RFLFB/AL); Simoniz Red VHT Paint (SIMVHT23D) is another red for manifolds, rated to 800°C.
