I had a can of Rust Oleum Flat Black on the shelf. Thinking it's a good color to cover the original muffler, I Painted. Looks good. About midnight it hit''s me...High Temp??? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/huh.gif)
The can label shows it ok up to 200degrees. So...how hot does the muffler get? If it's not going to work, can I paint a high temp paint on top, or do I need to strip this off? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/chair.gif) |
