Default Hi Temp Rust-O-leum?

Does anyone know of a rust-inhibiting NON-SPRAY paint to coat some welds on an exhaust to prevent rusting? Must be Hi-temp rated. I'd like to coat the welded areas with a brush, not spray (preferably gray primer in color or silver) TIA... :yesnod:

Use the Barbque Black in the spray cans (from Rust-Oleum) spray a small amount into a soup can and then you can brush it on seams. Make sure seams are clean of rust and comtaminations - wire brush them- have fun.

Stick with VHT -- we've used it on several cars with great results (as long as the surface is properly prepped). This winter I plan to do my entire exhaust system to match up with the ceramic coated headers.

But it needs to warm up quite a bit first!!!!!!!!!
