Hey guys, I was shopping in the Lowes home improvement store and found some really cool rattle can paint made by rustoleum. It is called color shift. I bought the purple and blue color shift, and I painted the chrome pieces on my engine of my raven stryker. I will post pics up soon. I hope it lasts, looks absolutely sick!

I looked on the website quickly and didn't see anything about temp rating... I say go for it anyway, it if holds awesome, if not sand and repaint.

From their Technical Data Sheet

Use outdoors or in a well-ventilated area such as an open garage. Use when temperature is between 50°F (10°C) and 90°F (32°C) and humidity is below 85% to ensure proper drying. Do not apply to surfaces that, when heated, exceed 200°F or galvanized metal. Avoid spraying in very windy, dusty conditions. Cover surrounding area to protect from spray mist.

I still think it would be safe to use them on the plastic covers though, they aren't gonna get that hot.

With the exception of the pipes and maybe the heads I don't think the block gets that hot. 37 degrees Saturday I got to where I was going took my gloves off and put my hands on motor to warm them and it didn't feel that hot.

I didn't paint any of my bike with high heat paint, and that was over a year ago. All of it still looks good. I did use a matte black so that might be the difference. But like the other said, go for it! Post pics!
