Description

Genuine Autotek · Part no. ATOVHTB500

Safety: Danger. Extremely flammable aerosol. Pressurised container: may burst if heated. Causes serious eye irritation. May cause drowsiness or dizziness. Repeated exposure may cause skin dryness or cracking. Read the label before use.

Autotek ATOVHTB500 is a 500ml matt black VHT paint with the highest heat rating of the three Autotek VHT colours, stable up to 650C. That makes it the pick for exhaust manifolds, downpipes and turbo heat shields, as well as complete exhaust systems in a factory black.

Good to know

• Which parts get hottest? The manifold and the first section of pipe after it; those are where the 650C rating matters most.
• How do I cure it? Most VHT and engine paints reach full heat resistance only after a heat cure, usually by running the engine or exhaust gently as the can directs; expect some smoke the first time.
• Can it go on brake parts? It is made for very hot steel, but keep it off friction surfaces such as discs, pads and drums, and off rubber parts.

Which one?

For a bare-alloy look on silencers, the Autotek VHT Paint – Matt Aluminium – 500ml (ATOVHTA500) is rated to 500C. For an engine block rather than an exhaust, the Autotek Engine Enamel – Red – 500ml (ATOOEER500) suits up to 140C.
