Default Kreem / Dyna-Kote

Hi,

I bought a set of Cycle shack exhausts for my 94 FXSTC, they will take my existing heat shields. I'm thinking about trying Kreem or Dyna-Kote coating to reduce the blueing and I'm wondering if it's worth the effort, (does it really work)?

Also, if the coating starts to flake off and since it's ceramic, could reversion suck it back into the cylinders and cause damage?

One more: What kind of exhaust gaskets should I use?

Thanks
Doug

I used the Kreem product, followed the instructions dead to the letter. Now the Kreem has peeled loose, it looks like rubber gloves floating inside my tank. I acid etched it, everything according to instructions. Will recommend against anyone using it. Now I have a heckuva mess, how to get that junk out of my tank? only one side is peeling so far. I am scared to mess with it, since it is still in one piece, and can't move around right now.

dyna-kote works well at least it did back in 95' the last time I used it. worked great on the drags I had on my 1200.
