Painted my header.

Post by RyanA »

I tried this VHT "Very High Temp" paint for headers and exhaust and I have to say that I'm impressed. If you follow the directions for the curing process (idle 10 minutes, cool 20, idle 20 minutes, cool, then drive normal for 30 minutes then cool) the stuff looks pretty much like black Swain coating. Here are a couple pics. It's raining like a MOFO here so the close up has some water droplets on the header.

Here is one before pic of the header then the afters follow.
