VHT makes a high heat resistant paint that many people use to paint valve covers.

There is also caliper paint designed for painting brake calipers.

You can find it at an auto parts store or hardware store.

You should try the search function next time. Quicker results.

I wouldn't use the caliper paint on the valve cover.. Lol My buddy did it on his civic and it looked like sh!t up close.. It looks sexy on the calipers though..

You can find both of the paints at an auto parts store

Use the vht paint for the vc.. There's plenty of write-ups to paint it and they show what paint they use on the interwebs
