Heat resistant paint

Postby ELXR_96 » April 2nd, 2009, 6:30 pm

Ok it goes like this.
I was staring at my EL motor today and had an apifimy of what would really look good
Anyway i'm getting some Pacemakers for my EA which i'm soon to fit an AU motor into and wanna paint them white.. Don't ask why just go with it?
Anyone painted an exhaust?
Would this be wise or not? I looked through so so many photo's on here and noone has done it..
Where can i get and how much would a couple of cans be for this?

yeah you can get header paint, but white would look real grubby after tinkering around in the engine bay a few times.

I painted my extractors in the high temp grey from repco, as they had a fair bit of surface rust when I got them. It was a rush job though so it's far from quality. Still look better than they did though

Yeah that was my thought to. I just pictures white extractors into a gloss black with the BBM gloss black also with a white intake pipe and fuel rail? The rest would bet black also..
Think that would look alright?
