Linetoline break in

[1972ho]

Has anyone that uses the linetoline skirt coating ever broken in the coating other than the way they instruct us to.

I have had pistons coated, properly broken in. The coating must be gradually worn in, I assume to avoid literally tearing it loose from the piston skirt due to too fast of a run in. It comes on the pistons about . 0025 too thick so it can be worn in gradually and soak up oil in between cycles. If you try and break it in in one heat cycle, I assume it will fail .

Would not the break in for the L2L and proper ring break in be the opposite of each others needs ?

[cgarb]

If you would coat pistons and the coating would not survive the ring break in process what exactly would the point be of the coating?

[swampbuggy]

And....what exactly would the quality of the said coating be ?? Mark H.

Maybe I need to review the L2L break in procedure. It's been a few years .

Too busy ATM to get into discussing right now . Will check back later.

I haven't used the line to line coating , only have read positive reviews but I all I can picture is it embedding into the cross hatch ???
