Totally agree !!! My DW ordered one of those new "stovetop mats" that's custom cut to fit our stovetop. It's "advertised" as heat resistant to 550F. Well, it came UPS, she took it out of the package, put it under the grates around the burners. Looked "super great" nice and clean, no scratches visible: yada yada yada… Then she boiled a teapot of water, turned off the burner and that "heat resistant mat" was scorched, melted and looked like crap !!! Needless to say, I was smiling from ear to ear because I'd told her before she ordered it, "Honey, that's just a grill mat and you know how they don't last through one grilling before they're melted and we throw them away".....
Guess what: She took photos, demanded a refund and we're back to her complaining about the scratches around her burners.....
Long story, I know, but I'd guess "heat resistant paint" would last about as long as a "heat resistant stovetop mat".... Then add the toxic fumes from burning
