Incorrect. I thought I posted on this earlier today when I first saw it, but I dont see my post...hmmm...
Anyways, this is good for about 500 degrees. They rate it at 450 degrees, and it holds up no problem. I have had it powdercoated over many times...works great and accepts the 450+ degree heat of powdercoating.
The stuff is absolutely awesome. I have a can of it in my shop all the time. Pretty expensive for how little amount you get, but defenitely good stuff. It does everything exactly the way they say it does!
