Mopar high heat paint

Does anyone know of a high heat (1200 degree) Mopar blue spray paint? I have found up to 500 degrees in that color, and only dark blue and sky blue in 1200, thought someone may have found what I am looking for. Thanks

Not sure how your using this, but power coatings can provide the range and may not change colors from extreme exposure to constant heat. They like heat.

Is that the one where they have the four stages, where you prep, paint and coat the block or something like that? I was looking for a higher degree paint just for the block, but I eventually settled on the 500 degree. It turned out well, I will post some pictures of my final project when I get a chance.

With the powder coat the whole thing gets baked. Good luck with the 500, should do ok. Hope it never gets that hot.

That is my concern, it is an out of body paint, and I put with three coats after I stripped the old paint off. Shouldn't be too bad, probably see something around the headers though.

I had a set of headers powder coated, cost me $200 or something can't remember, and I think they only used 1200 Deg paint and its coming off. Everytime I go by their shop the open sign is displayed and all the doors are locked, so I can't even find out what they did. I know now to confirm the temperature rating, was told should be 1800 degrees.
