PJ1 used to be the stuff, but not sure if it is available anymore. The Simonize is good stuff and has a good history

Sperex. A blast from the past.

I used a paint called VHT Flame Proof Spraypaint. The temp range is 1300-2000 degrees F and 704-1093 degrees Celcius. It is designed for headers and high heat exhaust pipes. Here is a pic. Hope this helps.....
