I am in the middle of using my mini dremmel with the wire brush fitting to remove all the rust and to scuff the surface for painting.

Chrome paint can be bought off the shelf, so can gold... That little heat sheild shouldn't be getting hot enough to burn off non-high-temp paint, since it's there to keep from burning your leg.

you wont need high temp paint -1000-1200 ft for the shield but you will need at least eng paint - rated 400-600 I believe.
