Good going Dennis!
You just used the thermal barrier coating that holds heat in.
You should have used:
*TLTD* THERMAL DISPERSANT
 Rapidly disperses heat away from a coated component More evenly distributes
heat over a coated surface Aids in cooling heat sensitive parts Excellent
for intake manifolds, brake components, oil pans etc.
Very good chemical and corrosion resistance Black in color Cosmetically
appealing Requires baking. Cures at 300f minimum. Must be oven baked
----------------------------
People that don't read instructions is why we quit selling the TechLine
Retail products line and now stick only to professional coatings and
applications.
