Best thing to coat cast aluminum with?
What is the best thing to coat an intake with? I have always clear coated them with Nason clear coat and it doesnt work worth a dang. Always cracks and oxidizes within a few months. Am I doing something wrong or putting it on too thick? Would a better clear make the difference?

Clear powder coat is better for that..

Powder coat for sure.
5 years later and it looks the same as when it was first put on. No peeling or chips.
