Reply to "Restoration of the Ansa exhaust"

What to do next?

I looked at a restored Countach the other day and the muffler box was matt black extending up the tips about 30mm, then a 10mm red band seperating the polished tips from the black box.

Some vendors show the exhaust as mine is above, and others show the entire system ceramic coated to the base of the tips.

I dont want to make a polished feature of the exhaust boxes, and prefer the rear view to be of the tips and the suspension underneath, but I'm interested in the thoughts of other owners/restorers.

Also, has anybody got any experience with polishing the stainless tips. Are there better or worse methods or products out there and are special tools or techniques required?

So what's the general concensus of opinion, polished, ceramic, or black boxes.

If black, what product to use. Is VHT exhaust paint up to the task?
