Copper pipe

Has anyone had any success painting 15MM copper pipe when it's used to transport collant water a round the engine bay?

why anything fancy? it's only gonna be about 100 degrees tops, unless its next to the manifold.

celly primer, then aerosol black for mine, assuming you mean on the outside

Powder coated. Cheaper than painting.

Just what I was going to suggest. Used this before on cars. It's a chromed copper pipe. Not much more than just plain copper.
