sorry for taking so long to get back to you.  I posted to pics in my gallery.  I only pressure washed the pipes before I painted so there is some flaking.  Terrys right about the prep, if there is rust under the paint then its going to peel or chip.

James,
Thanks for posting the pics. I just checked them out.
I guess the best I can do is to just prep them as well as I can and try out the VHT paint. They recommend using their high temp primer, but none of my local stores seem to have it. I guess I have to search some more for that.

I could live with repainting them once a year if needed. Hopefully they would last that long and mostly look better than they do now.
