Exhaust Wrap Temp

[richardm6994]

Anyone know......or even have an estimate what the max temperature would be of the exposed surfaces of my exhaust wrap around the manifold?

 

Reason for asking....I've got some heat resistance paint (up to 450 degrees C) and I wanted to paint the exhaust wrap to seal in all of the fibres etc.....

itching for weeks.....tell me about it....probably the worst kit-car build job ever!!!!

 

it's 50mm wide, which I've overlapped as I wrapped so that overall it is 2 layers thick.

 

I'm thinking that the paint should be okay because I can just about touch the manifold wrap after a good run ....so probably no where near 450 degrees-C
