Helix Racing Products Special Application Paint

Helix Racing Products High-Temperature Exhaust Paint

When powersports components face the extreme heat of an exhaust system, ordinary paint simply won't hold up. That's exactly the problem Helix Racing Products set out to solve with their line of special application paint — purpose-engineered coatings built for the punishing thermal environments found on motorcycles, dirt bikes, snowmobiles, and other high-performance machines.

Built for Extreme Heat

The centerpiece of Helix Racing Products' special application paint lineup is their Very High Temp Exhaust Paint series, marketed under the Silica Ceramic Exhaust System Paint banner. This paint is formulated specifically for components that require high-temperature applications, and it's an effective way to extend both the life and color of exhaust system components — including fiberglass exhaust wraps and pipes.

The exclusive ceramic formula increases heat dispersion to maintain and protect the paint finish, and it withstands intermittent temperatures of up to 2,000 degrees F. That kind of thermal tolerance puts it in a class typically reserved for professional ceramic coating services — at a fraction of the cost.

Ceramic Technology That Goes Beyond the Exhaust

Formulated for components that require high-temperature paint applications, Helix Racing Products' exclusive ceramic formula increases heat dispersion to maintain and protect the paint finish, with resistance to oil and gas as well. Other suitable applications include radiators, oil coolers, manifolds, and engine cases — making this paint a genuinely versatile solution for any heat-exposed powersports component.

Available Finishes and Colors

Helix Racing Products offers their high-temp exhaust paint in multiple finishes to suit different aesthetic preferences and functional needs. Options include a flat black finish (part 165-1020), a flat aluminum finish (part 165-1170), a gray primer (part 165-1000), and a satin clear (part 165-1150) — giving builders and restorers the ability to either color-match components or protect existing finishes under a clear topcoat. The aerosol delivery format makes application straightforward, even in tight or awkward spaces around an exhaust system.

Why Helix Racing Products for Special Application Paint?

Helix Racing Products provides everything from pre-filter foam to exhaust components and tubing to tools — and their paint lineup reflects the same commitment to powersports-specific performance found throughout their catalog. Rather than adapting a general-purpose product, Helix developed a paint engineered from the ground up for the specific demands of motorcycle and powersports exhaust systems. The result is a coating that enthusiasts and service departments alike trust for both restoration work and new builds.

Whether you're refreshing a set of oxidized expansion chambers, protecting a freshly wrapped header, or refinishing an engine case, Helix Racing Products' special application paint delivers the heat resistance and durability that extreme-use components demand.
