I haven't messed with high-temp paint before.  What should I be using on this strap?  I heard brake caliper paint mentioned somewhere here.  Any thoughts?

I found this on Amazon.  It looks like it should work, but I'd like to know if a better alternative is around.

This should work.  After I received the strap from @varekai, I gave it an electrolysis bath and zapped off the gold paint.  A little bending got it pretty much back into shape.  Some grinding, drilling and painting will be next.  A new set of Zav Koa handles arrived in my Secret Santa stuff, so I'm set for those.  Thanks again, varekai!
