Usually it has to survive at least 500F, and work as a metal primer too. Some rather hard stops got my calipers to about 400F, ITR's on a 95 EX. Race apps will require much more. Many places sell 1200F grill paint, but I'm sure other people have found some really good stuff. 'Ceramic' paint isn't a very good idea, since it will keep heat in a little, and you want to get rid of all the heat you can.
