To avoid the usual (cosmetic) rusty hub problem I'd like to paint the centre of my new brake disks. Can I get away with normal silver Hammerite for this? Not sure how hot the centre of the disk gets ... the wheel it's bolted to must act as a pretty good heat sink.
I went into Halfords last night and the only brushable paint they had was Hammerite. I've used high-temp paints in the past, but they've always been aerosols (and black, although other colours must be available). Obviously since they're on the car spraying would require a fair bit of masking off and would take a lot longer than brushing.
I've found some posts here saying Hammerite is OK for this, and others saying it's not!
