Painting mufflers?

Has anybody painted mufflers before? Should I use a high heat engine paint?
Don't want it burning off or smoking!

you need high temp paint. Are you painting black, to thwart cops noticing aftermarket exhaust?

i sprayed the high heat paint on my ikon exhaust, and it's never peeled off or melted, just some rock scraps and chips as debris from under the car and on the road
