Exhaust Paint

Post by dobbor1 » Thu Jul 05, 2018 12:14 pm

Can anyone advise on which paint I should use to tidy up the inside of my exhaust tips please? I have the standard LCI square tips.

Thanks Jeff

Just use a high temp black suitable for BBQ’s etc from the range/ B&M stores. Ends up matt black and its high temp, although i dont think the tips get that hot?
