Header Paint

I want to paint my lake headers white. Anybody had luck at this without flaking & chipping? What's the best rattle can paint for this?

 

dont think there is a way to paint headers without paint coming off

 

I use VHT high temp paint on all my exhaust but i get the headers blasted and phosphate coated first which is cheap, Last's a good 12-14 months before it needs doing again.

Steve.

 

i used POR15 high temp paint on my manifold and it held up pretty good... but it only comes in black, and maybe silver. You could paint it with POR15 first, then paint with white... or just get them powder or ceramic coated

 

I think HPC is doing white now or they are planning on it

 

Ive had good luck with VHT. Eastwood has good header paint, also. Sandblast them first.

 

These guys do a white ceramic coating if you want to spend more than header paint.

Ive used Eastwoods header paint, the high temp silver. rust started coming through and the paint was chipping off in less than a couple months
i blasted the headers before painting them too
