VHT high temp cast iron grey.Works great but you need to do a proper job of prepping and painting it.

I used that DupliColor I think. I prepped it with some rough then fine grit paper. Sanded it for about an hour. Then I hit it up with the paint cause I couldn't find high temp primer.

To paint or not to paint? That is the question.
