Have a set of head pipes that were jet hot coated over 20 years ago. Touched them up in the last decade or so with a generic high temp. stove spray paint. Did ok but was wondering what's the latest and greatest.
Ease of application and cost (guzzi content) are factors.

In the cheaper vein of things, John Deere makes a $15 rattle can that I believe is marketed as muffler/header/engine paint, I believe it's part ceramic. Anyway I did the header pipes on my T and they're 2 seasons old with 1500~ miles on them and still look like I sprayed them yesterday. Totally idiot proof too, I would have to go out of my way to try and get that paint to run. Smells dangerously sweet however

It may be the same stuff that Thirtyaughtsix mentioned with a different label, but VHT "Flame Proof 1300-2000°F" works very well if you're willing to follow the curing procedure on the label. It comes in many colors, including black and clear. Here's one source, and there are many others.

I've had it on my Mille's head pipes for several years. Rocks chip it occasionally, but a touch-up every couple years isn't difficult.
I'm pretty sure you'd need to remove the stove paint before applying this stuff.

ive used the VHT stuff on car headders, and it works vary well, and looks great. Ditto on the curing!! Any over spray on your garage floor will be sticky for about 5-7 years, and you will track it into the house.... ask me how I know....

I had a set of Triumph pipes coated with ceramic black. It's been durable and the color is consistent. Better finish than hi temp paint
I've used before. A powdercoat shop did them for $60 US
