I have a gas heater with a flue that for its inside portion has a black
aluminium tube joined to a stainless steel bend. SWMBO would like the
stainless part painted black to match. I learned yesterday that the
spray paint for ovens that the local shop sells will not stick to
stainless steel. It was suggested that some special sort of primer is
needed. Does anyone here have experience with this? I should point out
that the bend is more than a metre from the heater, therefore not
exposed to the highest temperatures.


stove paint?

Possibly. The similar product that I saw is apparently not suitable for
stainless steel.
