Never used that brand I have used the duplicolor Hi Temp paint but it should work just fine. Just make sure its clean before paint. Prep work is the key.

I think thats the stuff I used, and it worked just fine. Just make sure you degrease your motor first, it there is dirt the paint will not bond and will flake off.

Re: Is This High Temp Paint any Good?
No! I would recommend normal car primer, paint and clear.

Re: Is This High Temp Paint any Good?
...and if you get any oil on the exhaust manifolds or headers after painting, be sure to clean it off before running the engine because it can stain bad.

Re: Is This High Temp Paint any Good?
The secret to painting exhaust manifolds:
1. sand blast 2. paint with a very light coat, just enough to put color on it. NO PRIMER 3. If you have access to an old stove, bake them at 400 deg. for about 30 min. If not install them and run the engine for short periods of time until well baked to the metal. If you don't sand blast them, paint will never stay on them.
