Any Experience with Ceramic/Porcleum Manifold Coatings?

I have a 4 cylinder Continental manifold that I'm wanting to put a durable/no maintainence black coating on. This tractor will not be out plowing, just parade and show. Has anyone had any experience with having their manifold professionally ceramic coated? Are ceramic coatings really no maintaince? I've heard good and bad both. But I think it might be who does it. Some coat inside and outside of manifold others only do the outside. I want something that will not flake and will completely keep rust from ever appearing.

I have tried Bill Hersh and Eastwood brush on manifold coatings and wasn't really impressed. They either develop surface rust if they get wet and aren't dried off immediately or they start to flake and chip.

Anyone know of the best route to go here that will give continued showroom results that will allow it to always look as if it was just done, if so where did you take it to have the ceramic coating done? Thanks in advance!
 
Pinot yet, but I've used Swain Tech up in New York to coat pistons and I was very happy with the results. We were thinking of getting a manifold done but just didn't get the chance yet. There's is white and it's the only way they offer exhaust coatings.

POR15 has a grey exhaust paint, I tried it, held up for about a year on a daily driver but eventually flaked off.
