Ceramic piston coating?

I'm looking into getting the crowns of some pistons for a pinto turbo ceramic coated.

Has anyone had experience of either of these companies?

There is a fair diference in the price between the two so that might be the deciding factor.

Camcoat = £75

CTG = £120

Cheers,

DC

I used Camcoat to get some wishbones coated, did as they said they would and product worked fine. Not the same sort of application but company was OK.

CTG

I do know that what ever CTG do is done well. They are a top end company doing work for the motorsports sector.

I hade some pistons ceramic coated where one of the owners used to work (AEA) and they were very good. (I do not say that about many companies)

My choice would be CTG.
