What paint should I use to paint my exhaust?

The exhaust headers get hot. 500F hot. The mufflers stay much cooler. We have tried many different high-temp paints on this site, from engine enamels to high-temp header paint. The consensus seems to be that Rustoleum Barbeque Grill paint works best on the headers and that Duplicolor Engine Enamel works best on the mufflers.
