The zorst on the wee bullet was flaking and looking kinda crap.
Took it off , rubbed it down and washed it. Then gave it 3 coats of paint. Apparently good up to 600 degrees.
Will see how it long it lasts.

Three coats, should last much longer than the 'waffer-thin' paint used as standard. Nice job!

Did you apply this with a brush?

Why did you not use the spray paint version? Looks much much better than a paint brush job.

Brush on is a lot cheaper and possibly easier to get into gaps and ridges?

Cheaper.
