VHT paint on turbo?

Hello,

Just about to tidy up my new turbo before fitting and was thinking about tidying it up with some VHT paint.

Good idea or is it likely to get too hot for the paint?

I've used VHT paint on exhaust housing, no problem at all.

I was thinking exhaust side, but then I might just get a turbo blanket and cover it up anyway
