Hello. Please tell me what is navel jelly?
And second what kind of paint are you used? Because normal paint will fall, and i found same paint for 800 C only blak. Your's seem powder coating. And powder coating resit until 250 C.
Thank you.

It's coming up to about a year and they still look great. I did research on painting headers with the "Grill Paint" and what I found was pretty positive, so I ran with it. They also suggested using the flat black because you can easily touch up any chips or spots by just spraying it on the bike, and it will still look good.

As far as any burning, I don't notice any discoloration (maybe primer on yours was burning?), although it did stink pretty bad and smoke a little after installing them, but that is the nature of the paint curing process.
