Looks killer! How much wrap will I need to do mine like yours? What did you do to prep and what did you use to paint your mufflers? Side note...Have you bought "World Painted Blood" yet? I'm going to the Slayer, Megadeth, Testament show when it hits Nashville.

 

Painted first with BBQ flat black high temp paint. I think that was a fifty foot roll. Cut it in half, soak it in water and put one end of the wrap in a vice and roll your pipe towards the vice, keeping a lot of tension on it. Keep it tight, your forearms will kill in the morning. Stop where ever and secure it with SS clamp. Run/ride bike until it dries.
Don't have new disc yet, where are my priorities? Gonna try to see them Feb 5 in Chicago. I've been a fan since South of Heaven.

 

Love the look of wrapped pipes. Here are a few tips. Take the pipes off, although it can be done on the bike, it is much easier off. Soak the wrap in water to get the wrap snug, it is messy. Start at the engine port working towards the end of the pipe. I used high temp pipe clamps instead of the ties, it holds much better. Let the wrap dry completely before using the Silicone Spray or High Temp BBQ paint, this keeps the wrap from fraying. I used High Temp BBQ paint. Once the wrap is dry install the pipes on the bike and take it for a ride to start the curing. It will smoke until it is fully cured. Hope this helps

 

Just a heads up on the wraps, and I don't have an opinion one way or the other looks wise, they will cause the pipes to crack or otherwise go bad within two years (on average).

If you're still cool with that then all's good.

 

Everyone is entitled to their opinions but your statement is based on what?

My pipes are 3 years old and are not cracked. I have had 2 other sets wrapped and never cracked either.

As a matter of fact I have yet to see or heard of a set that has cracked due to wrapping them.

 

yup I've had mine wrapped on the NT for over 3 years. The sporty over 2 years and no problems. High temp paint the covers and follow as others said. Pc'd mine the first time it did not hold up the paint is much better.

 

Then you have some high quality pipes or are beating the average.

It's basic common sense about how it deteriorates the metal over time. The wrapped part of the pipe gets much hotter than the non wrapped pipe which can release its heat.

 

Had the Samson fishtails wrapped 3 years with no issues

My Bassani Sidesweeps have been wrapped one year; even talked to the Bassani manufacturer and he said that was a myth, he wraps all his pipes and headers

 

Man, your sig pic looks awesome! Had the same exhaust once but sold it due to losing tons of bottom end torque.

How do you like the power on yours?

 

Yes, common sense thinks that, but climate, frequency of riding make more of what wear and tear play on exhaust along with proper tuning!
