Hi,anyone one know the best black paint for exhausts?
BBQ paint is very good for exhausts.
i’ve got some of this coming to do the slip-ons on my r1 (removing the heat shields) - had it recommended to me. hoping to get some time to do this this weekend.

halfords do a good range of heat proof engine paints in a matt finish. I had to sand and respray my engine area near my down pipes the other week.
I use a Hammerite VHT paint, applied with brush. You get a thicker layer than the spray paints and it remains slightly flexible so it doesn’t crack with the expansion, which is what lets rust restart… Got it at Homebase IIRC.
Wilkinson own brand BBQ paint. £2.99 per can. Used many times on various exhausts and was always all right.
Best value for money!! 
BTW Don’t buy anything from Halfords, everything there is so overpriced!! Sometimes 100% more than in the other shops! Do some searching…
Or buy a stainless steel can for your bike, then no more worries about repainting it.
It’s the headers i need to paint,the can is black already.Thanks for info.
