Default hot stuff manifold dressing

Where is the best place/price for that new product: Hot Stuff Manifold dressing??? It's supposed to withstand 2400 deg temps

I got it from Paragon. I believe it was about $14.95 but i'd have to double check the invoice. The packaging was marked from Virginia Vette and I think VV is about a buck cheaper.

I used it on my '65 and liked it - came out nice but if i was going thru NCRS I wouldn't use it as I think it's too silvery in the color.
I just did another set of exhaust manifolds and used the Eastwood Factory Gray and I think that color comes out looking a little better overall.
either one is pretty good so far though in terms of withstanding the heat

I have used the Hot Stuff and bought it from Virginia Vette. As stated before it looks a bit silvery but my manifolds were very rusty, either way NCRS judges wouldn't be inpressed but it looks better than rust.
