Use a lacquer thinner or similar it will stop all the fumes burning into the headers and making them look shit

do you do this with any sort of paint on headers? like that high temp coating stuff made for exhausts/headers?

I was at an auto shop and they had 'Header Paint' in an aerosol can. How do you use a lacquer thinner with that?
