Yeah, watch out. . . the paint may just end up reflecting the heat and storing it in the bulb. I think the bulb will burst before the paint melts. . . recall what even a little bit of oil on a bulb will do!
Plug the bulb in but dont put it in the headlight housing.
I do believe that the bulb will start to smoke from the eat of the bulb. And it may shatter but not shure. I do know that it will smoke and the paint will burn. You can to use a high temp paiont. And spray light coats on it. The high temp paint will withstand the hea of the bulb. DO NOT PLUG THE BULB IN THE HOUSING
