Paint for a wood burner

[1192simon]

Hi Chaps, I am currently building a wood burner and need the finished color of it to be silver or grey. Is there any heat resistant paints i can buy for this ? Thanks Si

Dont know for Grey but most of us for our 2T exhausts use Plastikote BBQ Satin Black paint, I have used other heat resistant paints and they have been useless.

For grey you could use, POR-15 Manifold Grey its guaranteed up to 760°C [1400°F] without peeling or flaking and for silver theres POR15 POR-20 Heat Resistant Paint ,again good for up to 1400°F. I have used both these paints on exhaust manifolds with great results. Got mine from frost.co.uk

you should also try vitcas heat resistant paints http://vitcas.com/heat-resistant-paints, as website says, they are resistant up to 800C

Second plug this week but I'm not connected! Try Thermacure.

If you want grey, spray it black then shoot a thin coat of white over the top. I do this kind of thing with the burners I make all the time as the range of colours available is really limited. Calfire is another good stovepaint maker incidentally.

+1 for Thermacure. Used it on a firepit I built for a mate and still have some for my own when I get round to it. His looks great 1 year on.

I converted an inset Stovax Riva 66 to free standing last yr and used their paint. And can't fault it. Expensive*, but very good.

Also might be worth looking at the Rust-oleum Heat Resistant products, but have to say the Thermacure stuff is pretty good from what I have seen.
