A member here recommended http://www.lo-ko.com/services.html

I called a few days ago and prices are very reasonable. They do ceramic coating, and when I asked about the thickness of the coating they said around 2mm and takes around 1-2 weeks

Thanks for the quick reply, when you spoke w/ them did they mention the heat rating on the finish. I am looking for 2000*F.

They coated my DP awhile back. Excellent quality, no cracking or flaking.

I asked and they have from 1300-2000degree's. Also they seem to be friendly over the phone describing the process and their confidence with their work. I will try them sometime next week.

I talked w/ the lady who answered the phone and asked about Hi-temp coating and she stated that their coatings will go up to 1400*. I guess I could try and contact them again to see if I get different info.
