Painting Valve Covers

Hey everyone this is my first post on the evolution boards, but dont worry, I'm not your typical no-nothing newbie I've been reading the boards for about 2 months now... anyways, I want to paint the valve cover of my OZ the same color as I'm doing my brake calipers, and I wanted to know if I could use the same paint.. i know that the paint has to be high temp paint, but do I need to get more paint for it or could i use the same can? I dont want to have to buy an entire new cover that comes pre painted, so any suggestions? Thanks alot

Thanks for the 'welcome.. Im not sure the brand paint Im getting, if forgot to write it down, but its specifically for calipers im getting it at a local proformance shop, so im guessing its heat treated since calipers can get hot
