Was thinking about that.. also thinking of just using excess wrap and wrap the dip stick tubeIf you wrap them it might help with some of the problems we talked about.

I will wet it cause it does seem like it would lay better.. as far as the fibers.... I don't know why but I deal with it in insulation and stuff and it's NEVER Bothered me at all... Funny thing is poison ivy, oak, etc has zero effect on me either, lolI'd still soak it,even the titanium stuff is nasty to handle,plus it lays/wraps better when wet.Another tip is to wear tight fitting long sleeves and when you shower use as cold a water stream as you can stand,lol.

I wouldn’t wrap them. I’ve done more titanium wrap than I want to admit and it’s the reason I’ve moved onto ceramic coating. Wrap has its place but it’s also not the best option. Wrap will fray over time as it drys out and the dust/strands will stick to everything and make a mess. It does work but it’s too susceptible to destroying itself.
I've yet to see a ceramic coating live past a year where the climate drops below freezing .It doesn't like that temperature swing by the looks of it.Wrap if done right will live for several years if coated.
Thanks for the info. Maybe I'll look em up for a next project. As of 2 days ago wrap has been going onFor more than several years now, every engine and parts I build I coat . Over the years I've had several companies I've dealt with, but only one has come through with coatings that lasted and work. Worst case is a RX-7 engine, rotary, because of the heat. Everyone else heat rejection coatings fell off after a very short time, one companies coatings did NOT! PolyDyn Performance Coatings. They're in Houston Texas, number is 1-888-765-9396 or look up on line. Can't say enough about there coatings and might add they have been in business long before all others. Carl Benton is the owner and is a racer himself, all kinds of racing. Besides headers, PolyDyn has coatings for the inside of the engines, several types of coatings to do several things to help reliability and it'll add HP plus engine spin up and longer engine coast down time on the dyno. I've seen lower coolant temps plus lower oil temps. Check them out. If it's the lowest price your looking for, don't call them. If it's a next day turn around time your looking for, don't call them. If it's the best coatings that will last, try them or call them. I've tried several companies now and ONLY use PolyDyn.
I don't think you're talking about the same sort of ceramic coating that we are.... This is an exhaust coatingActually thoughts on ceramic coating differ. Have had Ceramic coating applied and it is fairing up pretty well after 8 months. Makes it really easy to clean the car as well.
It's not bullet proof, so contaminants will still cause marks, but it does make it quite resistant.
Yes, yes it doesMy frying pan is ceramic coated & its from NJ......does that count....LoL
Good thing you didn't decide to wrap that sucker. You def would have needed a boatload of wrap! LOLActually thoughts on ceramic coating differ. Have had Ceramic coating applied and it is fairing up pretty well after 8 months. Makes it really easy to clean the car as well.
