Correct under hood black paint?

Looking for an aerosol paint to use on under hood components (air cleaner, heater box etc.)

Does anyone have a suggestion?

I've used any brand of "trim black" with good results. Sort of a satin finish. Not quite satin but definitely not glossy.

VHT HighTemperature Chassis Roll Bar paint. They have satin black, and gloss black, but the gloss is not super glossy. It lays down nicely...
