I am taking off the downpipes on my GPZ at the weekend to beadblast them and want to repaint them as close to "matching the silencers" as possible. Whats the best paint to use ? Is this any good ?

The bike is all original but the downpipes are grotty !

I use B and Q BBQ paint, good finish and lasts quite well. Heat up exhaust from the inside and spray it on, cures well

Why don't you get the front pipes ceramic coated satin black by CAMCO 88 in Warrington

If you do then you won't be needing periodic re-painting
