Thanks, Chryco.
I'll be out and about today; I'll check at the hardware stores and Lowe's, maybe they have something too.  Someone mentioned "stainless steel" paint at Lowe's, maybe it is similar?
I hate the idea of mail order paint... "shipping" is huge a waste of my budgeted cash.

check with local machine shops , they often have high quality Iron paint
