Funny you should say that, went to get some plasti kote for my mates bike we're rebuilding and whilst in B&Q got talking to a guy who turned out to be a rep from plasti kote and they are phasing out their oil based enamal paints and replacing them with waterbased stuff for eu reg reasons. Its all very well for the enviroment but he admitted the waterbased isnt a patch on the enamal paints, espically if using them for their high temp properties. Also they arnt as hard wearing.
So either get down there soon as and hope they still have the enamal ones ( pots with metal lids) otherwise I wouldnt recommend the waterbased ones as wont be as good. Certainly if you plan to do lots of track days!! Pity as they were good.
