Heat Resistant Paint on the Firewall?

I'm about done with the firewall but the homebuilthelp video matter of factly mentions painting the firewall with a heat-resistant paint. I'm curious if this is what others have done, and if so, what did they use. I've seen some web articles say it should be kept clean and shiny (for other aircraft). 

Seems like it should be primed at least, but then this is all new to me so I'd definitely like other's opinions.

Thanks

Paul
