Default Durable cheap finish for home bu...

Cheap - try Ace Hardware's high temperature flat black in a spray can. It
leaves an almost flat black; there's a modest sheen to the surface.
I have a piece of aluminum angle before me now and I couldn't remove any
paint by scraping an edge with a finger nail. This was allowed to dry,
then baked at 250 degf for a couple of hours.
