What's the best, long lasting paint for my 235 exhaust manifold? Maybe rusty burned off looks original here, but not too pretty. But I have seen stories, and half peeled off fake doesn't look pretty either. Some restorers have worked hard, then manifold paint starts to peel off after a month or a year. I'll paint the intake engine color.

What current product really looks good and stays? How is the best way to clean and prep? Can it be done with a rust remover chemical, if I can't get to a sand blaster.

What about that high heat filler sold by some, to put on first?

Thanks, 'bolters!
