Rustoleum and Exhaust pipes
Many forum members use Rustoleum to paint their calipers, even the fancy pants C5 guys. My question is "will rustoleum hold up on my exhaust pipes?"
I have the car up on jacks right now and it isn't insured yet so in order to save downtime in the future i am doing everything that i will want to do in the future now.

Take a piece of aluminum foil and spray paint it on one side with the paint you wanna use.
Stick it in the oven at 450 degrees for 10 minutes or so and you should have your answer.

Good luck, my man. The exhaust shop I go to painted my pipes some "aluminum" color with spraypaint. Turned out real good looking.
You may wanna call an exhaust shop if the rustoleum doesn't turn out, see what they use.
