Need Source for Heat Resistant Paint

Quickstart:
This posting started long ago when high temperature paint was a hard thing to find. These days it's pretty much a commodity offered by several manufacturers in many colors, and readily available online from Amazon, eBay, etc.

Q. Can anybody help?

I need to find a source for heat resistant paint in different colors. I need at least brown- but yellow, orange, red, blue, and white would be awesome. I'm not sure what temp it has to go up to, but 300 °F is a good guess.

Oh yeah, I need it in a hurry too.

Q. Adam - any luck? - I'm doing the same research for White Heat Paint (for radiators).

Please let me know if you found any leads (sorry I couldn't help).

Q. Any luck on the search? This site came up when I googled on white heat-resistant paint. I also found Chase Product High Heat White Spray Enamel but no luck on where to buy it yet. Any leads are appreciated.

Thanks,

A. JCWhitney has a product with multiple colors that resists heat up to 900 *deg;F. I believe the name of the product is "Brake Drum and Rotor and Caliper Paint".

I believe you can order two spray cans that each have 11 ounces of product in them. I hope this helps if you all are still looking for heat resistant paint.

Adam, 300 °F isn't really "high heat" as paints go; several are rated to 1200 °F. and even more.

Peter, Pamela, I've used regular interior house paint on radiators with no problems. They are unlikely to even reach 212 deg (boiling point of water).

Jens, Chase Products has a website where you can buy it online.

Dave, Angie, thanks.

Readers: Times have changed and you can buy high temperature paint from Amazon, eBay, and other online sources. Good luck all.

Hi everyone,
Please check this Akzo Nobel Intertherm 228, it's a white paint and withstands 230 °C / 446 °F.

Alternately there is this Berger brND primer (grey colour) that can withstand a temperature of 300 °C..
Hope the above serves your purpose,
Take care cya
