Olathe, Kansas — October 8th, 2025 — ZyCoat®, LLC, the leader in advanced high-temperature coating technology is excited to announce the launch of ZyClear™ High-Temperature Clear Coat at Stainless Works, a premier manufacturer of high-performance stainless steel headers and exhaust systems. This breakthrough product is designed to protect and enhance stainless steel exhaust components while maintaining their natural finish in extreme heat environments.

Performance-Driven Technology

Developed by ZyCoat®, ZyClear™ is a high-temperature clear coat engineered to withstand up to 2,100°F (1150°C) ambient and 1,200°F (650°C) substrate surface temperature, delivering superior oxidation resistance and heat protection for performance exhaust systems. Unlike traditional clear coatings that discolor or degrade, ZyClear™ preserves the natural stainless steel finish, ensuring long-lasting aesthetics and durability.

“The Stainless Works relationship is affirmation of the technology leadership in high temperature coatings brought to market by ZyCoat, LLC,” stated Tim McCarthy, Founder & CEO.   “We are thrilled to embark on this partnership keeping the Stainless Works headers and exhaust components in the winner’s circle looking and performing great,” added McCarthy.
