Most just use spray cans of engine enamel...
or hammertone spray cans etc...

It doesn't get all that hot.... the paint won't blister etc...
If Your paint does blister etc... Your engine is running MUCH TOO HOT!!!

Hi

I use White Knight quick dry enamel. If the surface is a little daggy use satin black.

Make sure you have a clean and grease free surface to paint, otherwise the paint will lift.
