Clean the plastic with wax and grease remover, use a plastic primer, and coat with your choice of high temp paint colour.
The header tank will only ever get to 90-110 in normal conditions, I think most paints will hold up to that, so you could probably get away with using any old paint. But use a good primer no matter what. |

It wouldn't hurt to. I did the same to my old VL one and it lasted for over 8 years.

VHT is the best stuff for heat. Cheap enough and can get it anywhere.
