High temp paint, where from ??

[Anonymous]

I'm going to be getting my exhaust boxes painted in high temp paint, where can I get it fom ?

I know that demon tweeks sell it, but tbh it's a bit on the pricey side [smilie=doubt.gif] where else does it ?

The exhaust (standard item) is fine, but it's dull as & I doubt it'll come up by buffing it etc, so i'm going to get it painted black (probably matt black)
As i'm getting the cambelt & clutch etc done soon, i'll get that done too [smilie=cool.gif]

I just need to supply the paint.

hammerite seems to be the answer IMO try Halfrauds or B&Q etc

Will Hammerite be ok for the temps that the exhaust reaches though ?

I would be really reluctant to use hammerite as it is quite likely to just flake off or worse bubble up and look horrible. I know from experience that after a hard run or prolonged time at high speed my back box gets VERY hot.

You need Sperex HT exhaust paint, you can buy it in aerosols in a variety of colours matt black included. May take some finding but quite a few factors will sell it.

I've used it on race manifolds and it stays on them so you should be laughing!

The best stuff to buy is the stuff supplied by DEI. It is great for manifolds as well and can be used to seal in bandage wrapping if needed. I bought mine from:

Thanks for posting that swebite up, I can't see the paint on there though (maybe it's just me) I went to DEI's site direct, but their prices are all in dollars [smilie=doubt.gif]
