Heat resisting paint

Hammerite do one to 1000c but there are other paints for exhausts that go higher

Thanks for that, unfortunately Hammerite only do matt black and I need gloss black.

Hi

The last thing I needed to coat in heat resistant gloss black - I used brake caliper paint which is a special epoxy based stuff I think. However, it certainly wasn't an Aga so I can't comment at all on its suitability for that!

You could try tracking a supplier down (e.g. a car performance/restoration supplier) and asking the question of either them or the manufacturer?

The black enamel extends right up to the hot plates and is then partly covered by the hot plate lids. It is right next to the hot plates where the problem arises - the old enamel has flaked off. I have not measured the temperature but AGA has said the original enamel is heat resistant up to 600 degrees C whereas the touch up paint they sell is only suitable for temps up to 150 degrees C and their instructions say it is not suitable for the top surface of an AGA.
