intake manifold coatings.

[rept@qwest.net (Mike Blain)]

OK, here is a question:   aside from the obvious thing to do which is 
send my manifold pieces out to JETHOT, is there a CHEAPASS thermal 
coating or spraypaint type coating for intakes out there?  

I was polishing the intake from one of my vehicles, which consists of 9 
different pieces, got part way done with one and decided that 12+ hrs of 
sanding per part with a Dremel really SUCKSASS!    

Thanks all!
