Rust-Oleum 248904 Automotive High Heat Spray Paint, 12 Ounce (Pack of 1), Flat Aluminum

Love this stuff! Works really well! Ive used it on engine parts and exhaust parts. Works really good if your heat wrapping also. Cover the heat wrap in this stuff and the color holds for the life of the wrap. Also extends heat wrap life.

I’ve used a few high-heat paints before, but Rust-Oleum’s 248903 is by far the best quality spray paint I’ve found for automotive parts. I used it on my exhaust manifold, and it handled the intense heat like a champ—no peeling, cracking, or fading even after weeks of heavy use.The finish is smooth and professional-looking, with a rich flat black that doesn’t look cheap or flaky. Application was easy, too—the spray came out evenly with no annoying drips or clumps, which can be a problem with lesser brands.What really impressed me is how durable the coating feels. This isn’t just paint; it’s like a tough ceramic shield that keeps my parts protected from heat, oil, and grime. It definitely gives me peace of mind knowing my engine components are covered by something that can really take the heat.If you want a high-heat paint that delivers on quality and longevity, this Rust-Oleum is worth every penny.

Great spray paint. Easy to apply. Looks great on our fireplace.

This paint worked well for my application. Here's some additional notes on what I found:Pros:- The paint applied very well, thoroughly, and easily. I really like that it has the sprays upside down feature to it. It made my job far easier.- I followed the directions and made sure to apply many thin coats versus one thick coat. This made the coverage very uniform.- My job was quite small (a muzzle break for my hunting rifle), but there seems to still be a ton of paint left in the can.Neutral:- Make sure you note that there's a curing process for this paint. 250 degrees for 30 minutes, cool for 30 mins, 400 degrees for 30 minutes, cool for 30 minutes, 600 degrees for 30 minutes, and finally cool for 30 minutes. Alternatively, there are directions for curing parts that can't be removed form your car/bike.Cons:- I didn't see, prior to purchase, any mention of the heating and cooling cycle to cure the paint. The break I'm using can't easily be removed from the rifle, so I'm hoping that the paint will cure with some shooting time at the range. (This could have totally been an oversight on my part).Overall, I am happy with this paint. I have not had the opportunity to test its longevity in my application. Time will tell. I will update this review if I have any negative experiences.I hope I have helped your purchasing decision of this product.

As someone who builds "Alpha/Romeo 14+1 pew pews" (IYKYK) I wanted something scratch resistant and rust proof to protect my yeet tubes. Cold bluing is ok, but leaves the steel still vulnerable to moisture and surface rusting. Since the yeet tubes will be subjected to a ton of heat, I chose this particular product. Couldn't be happier. 3 coats went on super smooth, dried evenly somewhere in the ballpark of semi-satin (?) ...less than satin, but not quite dead flat. Zero runs, dries fast, and way better than a lot of other brands I've tried. I think I'll be using this product on all of my boomstock yeet tubes from now on. Couldn't be happier! Professional look, finish, and texture at a fraction of professional smithing costs!! I even recommended this to a bunch of my outdoor enthusiast buddies and vet friends! Now they plan to do the same!Pros: even coverage, smooth finish, near-flat like I wanted, zero runs, cheap and easy, dries fast, easy application, durable and more scratch,/rust resistance than cold bluingCons: -(/)Just do it if you're a 2A supporter who enjoys slinging lead.

The product was exellent, I love the result!
