Armor Coat
Ceramic Header
Coating to Sponsor
PDRA TD Low
Qualifier Award at
Virginia
PITTSBORO, N.C.
(October 20, 2015):
Armor Coat, backed
by parent company
Aesthetic Finishers,
is providing an
extra incentive to
PDRA Top Dragster
racers at the Brian
Olson Memorial World
Finals presented by
Mel Bush Motorsports.
The low qualifier in
Top Dragster (TD)
will receive an
extra $300 thanks to
Armor Coat. This
will be no easy feat
for TD competitors,
as the competition
level continues to
increase and fields
are the quickest in
the history of the
class.
“As racers
ourselves, we
understand the
importance of
receiving individual
service,” explained
Aesthetic Finishers
Inc. President, Bill
Coomer. “From our
large accounts to
our engine builders,
hot rodders and
racers, we want
folks to be aware
that we are always
looking for ways to
make things more
convenient for them.
The bottom line is
that we take pride
in making sure our
customer service is
as personal as
possible.
“Armor Coat is an
aluminum ceramic
formulation that was
developed by NASA to
protect parts from
thermal destruction
and we’ve taken that
same technology and
brought it into the
motorsports world,”
he continued. “So
with Armor Coat,
you’re not only
getting a very
aesthetic looking
part, but also a
part that is not
going to break down
from the inside out
due to the corrosive
characteristics of
the exhaust gases.
You will also
benefit from the
thermal properties
of the ceramic
coating.”
The chrome finish
Armor Coat will
withstand up to
1,350 degrees, while
the black finish
boasts a tolerance
all the way up to
2,000 degrees.

“Armor Coat and Aesthetic Finishers do
small and huge runs of powder coating
for companies all over the world,”
informed Kathy Fisher, Performance by
Fisher driver of the Armor Coat Top
Dragster. “We’ve been using them for
years for all of our powder coating
and, of course, with Amor Coat. We are
very proud to run the Armor Coat Top
Dragster and to help introduce them to
the upper echelon of the PDRA.
“This product not only works great on
race cars of all types, but also your
hot rods and show cars. Not only does
the near chrome, cast gray, flat
black, or black finish look terrific,
Armor Coat has exceptional corrosion
and chip resistance,” added Fisher.
“We even Armor Coat our wheelie bar.
We use it in a lot of places instead
of chrome because it just looks that
good and it’s a lot cheaper than doing
chrome. If you’re interested and want
to know what Armor Coat is all about
stop by and visit us at the World
Finals.”
Several other race teams and
companies, such as Mcilvain Race Cars,
have also chosen the performance of
Amor Coat for their personal and
professional applications. Armor Coat
is an excellent alternative to
polishing as the near chrome finish
will not turn color over time or even
after years of heat cycles. With a
tightly controlled application process
that has been refined over the
decades, Armor Coat customers note the
coating is the brightest, most durable
ceramic coating that they have ever
used and coated items still look
remarkable after years of use.
