Any one use header ceramic coating for a barrel?

Ceracoat uses ( cera ) tiny ceramic particles to increase durablity agains scratches and the like. Pure ceramic coating in a thick coating is what is used on headers to withold heat to evacuate it from the engine compartment. I thought he was inquiring on a pure ceramic coating. There are four types of Ceramic coatings depending on the temp. rating.
You are right, although I would only be using very lightly.

Porcelain which is a type of ceramic was used on space shuttle all the way down to motorbikes and farm motors... most of these coatings with technology and from tactical to practical applications all derive from controlled expansion and heat soak in combustion process or high friction coefficient technology say in modern turbo bearings and so forth ..then there was application in all or most endurance challenges..
