    Hi I'm restoring an old Kawasaki ( before you shoot me, my main bikes a Triumph o_O)
    Could anyone recommend a brand of exhaust paint. Would like gloss finish, and if it had a metallic fleck that would be great. Halfords sell one that's metallic, but doesn't say if it's gloss.
    I have already painted it once but it was matt, and looks awful.
    Cheers

    i saw a bike the other day had black chrome exhausts , should imagine that it would stay on longer than heat resistant paint ,

    Ceramic coating is the best, but expensive. My old Sprint has black header pipes. They get kind of "sandblasted" living out here in a desert area. I touch them up every few years with VHT. ...J.D.
