ive had lots of parts coated,but you cant do much with 900-1000 cranks and bearings.i have had piston domes/skirts valves and combustion chambers and ports coated,just remember anything you add to a machined surface affects clearances;)

well they say thats the beauty of this microblue stuff cus its only half a micron thick or so. so its not supposed to play with that crap, but then again, if it was a miracle cure, why wouldnt everyone and their grandma be doing it?

A Slick 50 or similar oil additive might
work just as good.I would wonder if the
coating process of microblue would affect
the heat treating of some of the metals?
