| I'm looking to paint my bike I'm having a hard time finding a good satin finish black paint for my tank and fenders...I've found high gloss(ugly) and flat black which is too dull...anything satin has been some cheap brand that i dont trust. any help finding a satin finish? Also, I'd like to paint my pipes black, what is a good kind of paint to withstand the heat...regular engine paint didnt seem to last on my dad's bike

| You will have to use high-temp exhaust paint for the exhaust, like they sell at auto parts stores for headers. Semi-gloss or satin black is common. Check auto parts stores, auto paint supply stores, and similar.
