probably been done to death, has anyone had experience with paint that will resist the heat on mufflers, I want to improve the appearance of the hotdogs on the buggy and the one I tried didn't go any where near doing the job.
i have used pot belly black twice with good results but it doesnt stop corrosion though.......
but there is a company over here in perth called phoenix paints, they are water based, easy clean up and they have a paint called metalfix that is a
fire retardant primer that is designed to go on rusted surfaces.it converts rust into a metal phosphate.can handle temps over 40 deg to 1000 deg...and
can paint over with any topcoat as it is redy orange....
u can even paint a panel which needs welding then do the welding after....anyways my mate swares by them.... http://www.phoenixpaints.com.au
laters..........

i have found the best method to paint exhuasts is to sandblast the exhuast then to spray with heat proof paint from a rattle can, and give it a few
good coats
matt
I did the same and it worked well.
I sandblasted, prepwash (wax n' grease remover)
Then light coat of VHT flameproof, then 4 heavier coats.
Ran them to cure the silica/ceramic paint.
