What type of high-temp paint have you used with success — and what local outlets have you gotten it from?
Did you brush, sponge, or spray it on? Thanks, pete |

I've never had brake rotors on a car for more than about 6 months - but I use engine paint. Works well for me.

I use cold galvanizing compound, it's grey in color and is 95% zinc dust with a resin binder. Holds up to heat well, I use it on mufflers and heater boxes. Comes is a spray can, you'll find it at welding supply places.
