sembene is an unknown quantity at this point
Red face Ceramic paint additive as insulation?

What do you guys think about the potential thermal insulation of this vs header wrap?
http://www.hytechsales.com/insulatin...additives.html
Since its intended as a house paint, do you think it'll burn off? "The microspheres in the HY-TECH additive blend have compressive strengths from 6500 to 60,000 psi, a softening point of about 1800° C., and they are fairly chemical resistant, with low thermal conductivity of 0.1 W / m / Deg.C. "
I'm considering this for an intake.
