Alternatively, I wire brushed the 45 year old exhaust manifold from my '59
TR3A restoration, sprayed liberally with Simple Green, rinsed, sprayed
liberally with phosphoric acid, rinsed, rinsed some more, dried, and painted
it (and the entire new exhaust system from TRF) black with ceramic based
high temperature paint. It's been two years, driven for one season, and all
still look great.
