What Exhaust coat do you use?

High-heat paint. Serious discussion, right? I've used VHT, but with mixed results. It mostly flaked off of the headers on my Turbo-T, I had used the oven-bake method on that, but without the VHT primer, so it has an excuse. I am again using VHT on the 3.4 DOHC Z-26 project, it looks good but seems.. soft, easy to scratch.
So I am looking at other options, and thought I would throw some questions at the Board for info and feedback, specifically regarding exhaust-paint/coating done at home...
VHT offers their "Flame Proof" by the quart, I may go that route, I have a few exhaust-systems to work on now.
I found a good deal on Rust-oleum "High Heat 2000", anyone try this before?
What about other brands?
Better experience curing on-car, or oven-bake?
Primer an absolute must, or superfluous?
