Krylon EDE161207 Gray Primer Heat Resistant Spray Paint

Product Description

The KRYLON EDE161207 is a 12 oz aerosol gray primer and heat resistant spray paint rated for surface temperatures up to 500 degrees F. Packaged in a pressurized aerosol can with an EZ Touch conical nozzle, it delivers a high gloss finish on automotive components, exhaust systems, and other surfaces exposed to sustained heat. Coverage reaches approximately 14 square feet per can. The formulation resists oil and other common automotive fluids, making it a practical choice for engine bay work, brake calipers, headers, and similar applications. HVAC technicians, auto service technicians, and experienced DIYers working on heat-exposed metal surfaces are the primary installers.

This paint is suited for residential and light commercial automotive applications where metal surfaces experience elevated operating temperatures. Typical use cases include exhaust manifolds, engine blocks, heat shields, and underhood components. The spray application method and conical nozzle allow for controlled coverage on irregular surfaces and tight clearances. The gray primer finish also serves as a basecoat before topcoat application in multi-step refinishing work on high-heat metal parts.

Key Features

• Heat resistant up to 500 degrees F for high-temperature surface applications
• High gloss finish suitable as a standalone coat or primer base
• EZ Touch conical nozzle for controlled, even spray pattern
• Resistant to oil and common automotive fluids
• Aerosol delivery with approximately 14 sq ft coverage per 12 oz can
• 30-minute dry time reduces service downtime

Compatibility

Designed for use on metal surfaces subject to high heat, including automotive exhaust components, engine parts, and heat shields. Suitable for any bare or prepared metal surface requiring a heat-tolerant primer or finish coat.

Installation Notes

Surface preparation is critical before application — clean the substrate thoroughly and remove rust, grease, and loose scale. Apply in a well-ventilated area away from open flame or ignition sources, as aerosol propellants are flammable. Shake the can adequately before use and apply in thin, even coats per the label directions. Allow full cure time before exposing the coated surface to heat or fluids.
