To tell the truth it isnt VHT, its just White Knight hi temp spray paint 1000F resistance i bought from bunnings along with a plain pot of red enamel for the lettering. Red paint was applied with a fine brush from the pot. Ive got some run overs to clear up, ill do this when i finish it up post cam install, by spraying the black paint into an ice cream lid at close range and applying it with a brush onto the run overs.
