Never tried it, but I've heard from a couple of trustworthy folks that it works and has no negative impacts.

I have also heard this about VHT's hi temp ceramic paint, but never tried it. I have used it on the OUTSIDE of a pipe I welded, and it worked great FOLLOWING the instructions closely. They got a whole curing technique.

Bluing is the cause of two things mainly the fuel mixture... the other is hand prints... however, my V&H pro pipe has discolored to a gold after the collector. My mixture is right, but I've seen others that are very blue.

I have also heard that the ceramic spray works. Not sure about stove enamel. I wonder if that can stand the heat from inside an exhaust. There is always Bike Brite Blue Buster?/!

I believe some paints have a temperature rating on the can (those specifically designed for heat sensitive applications). I'd double check with the mfg first though, just to make sure the paint won't break down under hi-temp conditions.
