I am going to paint my muffler and was wondering if anybody's had any success using the carmic high-temp paint from the local parts store? I know some guys that have done the powder coat equivalent, but that does not fit my budget - just want something that will prevent the rust and look OK (it is all rusty and looks like hell!). I know most of the work is in the prep and that is a real PIA!

i've used the ceramic high-temp paint. good to like 1100 deg or something....
on the muffler, it seems to stick and last about 6 months to a year. on the primaries (i run headers), it lasts about 1 month before it starts flaking off. |
