    What Color Should I Paint My Highland

    Last fall I saved an ice fishing house frame with KBS seal, it was great to work with and it’s holding up very well. Can’t recommend this company enough. Then I noticed they do high temp paint. My highland’s firebox is looking rough and I love modding it so I’m going to sand all the crap paint off and repaint in KBS this spring.

    What color should I do? I’m leaning toward cast iron grey, stainless steel, or charcoal metallic. What do you think?

    KBS Xtreme Temperature Coating is a high temperature/heat resistant coating and header paint formulated specifically to protect metal surfaces operating at temperatures from 500 degrees F to 1500 degrees F.

    I think something is off in your poll. I clicked "rocket red' as the first vote and it showed up as 100% votes for charcoal metallic... in other words, off by one

      That’s weird do you think I set it up wrong and it’s something I can change or is it just the site being buggy?

      Did you select "View Results" before clicking "Vote"? That’s what I did the first time…

    If you paint the inside, I suggest black 'cause it will soon be black anyway. (I don't think the inside will need painting anyway.) I like charcoal metallic for the outside.

      Actually I wouldn’t paint the inside at all. Just scrape off any rust if needed.

      Yeah inside is fine, main cooking compartment exterior is fine, firebox is rough. Good opportunity to get ahead of rust and class it up a little. And I can paint my smokestack extension the same color as the cooker

    I voted for charcoal metallic, it looks to be ok when I viewed poll results.

              Rocket Red wins with a second place finish for Charcoal Metallic. I’m painting the Highland Rocket Red with Charcoal Metallic wheels, shelves, handles, and firebox door. Thanks for the help deciding

                That combo should look really good. Can’t wait for your pics.

                I voted Pure White, but Rocket Red would be my #2. I love my white Weber more than my others.
