Christmas pressy to myself, they seem to have a coating already on the inside but I'm squirting a load of ACF50 in there as well.
Just waiting for a load of stuff from DSS to complete the job. New seat from Leightons fitted

you mention ACF50 - can you use it inside the exhausts?

On the original exhausts there is a grey zinc paint on the insides.

Dunno but it can't do any harm and I thought whilst they're brand spanking it would be worth it. Removed the diffusers squirted some in there and in the little drain holes underneath now I just keep rotating them every day or so. Probably completely OTT but in my head it's doing good ;D

I'm paranoid about corrosion in my new exhaust too - too many memories of the 70's! I'll buy some - thanks
