Question:

methods of applying ceramic coatings to metals?

how can i apply a ceramic coating to the inside of a cylinder of approx. dimensions 3/4 diameter 12-14 long?

Answer:

This is science. If you want a specific answer, you have to ask a specific question. What type of ceramic? What type of metal cylinder? What is the wall thickness of the cylinder? What is the thickness of the ceramic coating you want? Does the ceramic coating have to stay stuck inside the cylinder when things heat up or cool down and, if so, how much heating/cooling? Can the ceramic coating have porosity? How uniform does the ceramic coating thickness need to be? Why does the metal cylinder need ceramic coating on inside diameter? Why does the cylinder need metal on the outside? The short answer is there are many methods to produce ceramic coatings on metals, some methods work on certain combinations and not on others.
