Downpipe-ceramic coat only or coat and wrap?

I have a cheaper ebay downpipe I had ceramic coated. Since it's a cheaper version it is thinner then high quality downpipes so I expect a more "thin tin" sound from it. It's stainless steel and about 0.060" wall thickness, maybe more I didn't measure it.

It's not installed yet and I was considering using exhaust wrap on it as well over the ceramic coating to help absorb some of the "thin tin" sound. Thoughts? Good idea or not?
