That is actually far from a "random" question and is in fact a VERY specific question--Google it.

Please use meaningful subject lines so as to not waste people's time...

I believe you two have a different definition as to the word "random".

Ceramic top coating protects the piston from heat like in a high boost or high compression big shot engine and Teflon coating on the side skirts reduces friction and cylinder wall wear.

I get my definition from the Oxford dictionary:

adj.
Having no specific pattern, purpose, or objective: random movements.
