Default 29 Tudor brake drum paint question

What is the best paint to use on the brake drums??

I know that drums will get hot some times so I assume that it is better to use a High Heat paint rather than the same paint that is used on the body?? Which was PPG Concept DCC9300)

First off, regular paint is fine. The drums won't get near hot enough to ruin regular paint, which would probably crack at 400-500 degrees. Drums won't get any hotter than the engine.

Gloss black is the color, I do not know the PPG code as I don't use that brand.

Either 9000 or 9300 will be fine.
