You could try some other paints, there's a guide to painting rocker covers on retro renault and the guy mentions the rubbish selection of high temp colours. He said he used a normal non high temp paint and his has been fine.

i have used normal paints on engines/brakes for years and never had a problem.

[Bailey_1260]
