Thermal Barrier Coating

Yup i have another thread this one on thermal coating. Came across Swaintech website on coatings and feel that there is or could be a great benefit from the process, they have a gold coating for the top of the piston and a film called PC-9 for the side skirts, and its fairly cheap bout $52 a piston. Wanted to know who thought bout this or has done this, i think for what im shooting for this could be a great benefit.
