Heat resistant paint for ally

[hammie]

Hi peeps.

I'm thinking of painting my exhaust heat shield black but I know ally can be funny with paint. Has anyone got any experience and advice on what works well.

You could try some sort of etch primer and then use caliper paint, I wonder how well would caliper paint go on to the bare aluminium.

Powder coat it

I found a Hamerite high temp paint, no primer needed so will see how it goes. I'm going to leave it a couple of days before refitting.
