    Any of you lovely peeps got a racommendations regarding exhaust paint.
    The weather is not getting any better and i remember my exhaust rusting where the paint had flaked last winter.
    well I had the exhaust replaced but this one already has black paint flaking and we aint got to the shitty weather yet.

    Im on a non existent budget so will have to paint spary the bad boy as oppose to getting it powder coated! :(
    So do you guys have any recommendations on exhaust (hi temp) black paint?
    Thanks alot

    Barbecue paint is usually the cheapest. No matter what you buy, you will have to do it again and again and again.....................................................and again.
