hey guys i just painted my header heat shield black, with engine enamel which withstands 500 degrees, and i primed it beforehand, and i did a clear top coat, but the problem is that it is still bubbling up because of the heat from the shield, anyone know what i can do so that the paint stays on and doesnt try to come off, diff paint maybe?

 

dont paint something that is on your EXHAUST exhaust gets hot paint and clear coat dont mix

just leave it bare metal

 

1000 + degree paint should do it

 

Don't primer it or anything. I painted mine with 500' degree paint an it's fine. Sanded it down real good and do 3 good coats but you have to let it dry though for like 2 days.

 

dont paint it leave it as it is....

 

Don't use primer. The paint may be high temp but the primer isn't.
