Aftermarket Daily News 6 3 Tuesday, October 30, 2018 MAHLE Motorsport Mazda MZR PowerPak and PowerPak Piston Kit Designed specifically for the extreme load of today's highly boosted direct injected engines, MAHLE Motorsport now offers a PowerPak and PowerPak piston kit for the Mazda MZR machined from MAHLE's ultra-strong, lightweight 2618 alloy slipper skirt forgings. Utilizing advanced machin- ing capabilities from MAHLE manu- factured equipment, the pistons are machined with advanced crown and profile designs to ensure peak per- formance and durability. The pistons are then triple-coated beginning with a phosphate dry film lubricant to protect the pin bores from galling, followed by an application of MAHLE's propri- etary anti-friction Grafal coating applied to the skirts. Due to the higher cylinder temperatures and pressures associated with boosted, direct inject- ed applications, the top ring grooves are also hard anodized to protect against micro welding.

Malco Automotive Introduces EPIC Ceramic Coating System & EPIC Ceramic Refresher Spay Malco Automotive has introduced the Malco EPIC Ceramic Coating System to provide end users lasting vehicle protec- tion that is easy to maintain and adds a depth of gloss to a slick appearance. "Vehicle owners continue to look for easy, yet effective ways to protect their clear coat finishes. At Malco, we wanted to offer a product that does just that because it wicks water and dirt away from the surface of the vehicle," said Seth R. Glauberman, Executive Vice President. "The EPIC Ceramic Coating System is not only the industry's easiest to apply, but it bonds with the clear coat to provide outstanding depth of gloss." When professionally installed, the EPIC Ceramic Coating System will create a durable, hydrophobic surface. This coat- ing will prevent dirt, water spots, and con- taminants from adhering to paint, prolong- ing the life and ease of cleaning for any vehicle. This system comes as a starter kit with everything needed to properly coat a vehicle: EPIC Ceramic Coating comes in a 30ml size, enough to protect an entire vehicle; EPIC Ceramic Prep Wash Concentrate is a phosphate-free formula designed to remove dirt, road film and other common automotive soils quickly, easily and thoroughly; EPIC Ceramic Final Prep Wipe is the final step before application. Final Prep Wipe cleans and preps the surface to help ensure successful application of the long-lasting protective ceramic coating; and accessories includ- ing an applicator, suede cloths and an ultra-soft edgeless microfiber towel. The Malco EPIC Ceramic Refresher is a unique formula designed to comple- ment the EPIC Ceramic Coating System. This easy-to-apply spray helps to main- tain the protective properties and the gloss of the ceramic coating, keeping it durable and vibrant. If used every 3-6 months on a fully coated vehicle, EPIC Ceramic Refresher will refresh the protective and hydropho- bic characteristics of the original ceramic coating. Simply spray onto the vehicle and work it into the surface with an ultra- soft edgeless microfiber. Then wipe clean. Ceramic Refresher can also be used as a standalone protectant, produc- ing up to six months of durability. "This ceramic system builds on the EPIC Paint Correction System we launched last year," Glauberman said. "In fact, we believe that our paint correc- tion system should be used in conjunc- tion with this new ceramic to create the best possible show-car-level finish."

TRED Pro Recovery Boards TRED Pro is the world's most advanced and highly engineered all-in-one off-road vehicle recovery device specifically designed to get your four wheel drive, ATV and off road equipment out of trou- ble when traction is lost in sand, mud or snow. It's 100 percent Australian made and owned and it was the first recovery board with a lifetime warranty. TRED Pro's unique patented EXOTRED dual composite design is comprised of multiple molding processes and materials resulting in a flexible board fitted with glass-filled nylon nodules which offer far greater resistance to melt- ing under the heat and pressure of wheel spin. The transitioning convex to concave construction of the board allows the TRED Pro to wrap around the tire early in the recovery process, ensuring ulti- mate coverage to gain traction while the later convex shape provides the tire a sturdy platform to rise out and continue along a flat surface. Complementing the construction of the board is the precisely placed nod- ules which are spaced to match a large range of popular 4x4 tread patterns and provide optimal grip. The TRED Pro is also dual purpose as it can be used as a shovel to clear debris and obstructions for optimum TRED placement prior to recovery.
