I watched a U-Tube video showing a painted AR-15/16? doing a rapid fire magazine dump.
Rapid "Fire" it was! The paint blistered on the barrel and started smoking.
i've gotten many a painted AR very hot and never seen the paint affected.

Quotes from : DuraCoat Firearm Finishes Questions
"DuraHeat high temp is available in six colors and used primarily on the barrels of fully automatic weapons. DuraHeat is capable of withstanding temperatures of up 1800 degrees F, and cures at room temperature.
Will DuraCoat burn off my barrel?
DuraCoat can withstand temperatures as high has 500-600 degrees F. With "normal" shooting, your barrel will never get close to being that hot. If you are fortunate enough to own a transferable machine gun, or if you like to "blaze" with your semi-auto, do not put DuraCoat on your barrel, as your barrel temperature will rise to over 1,000 degrees F. In those cases, use DuraHeat. Our DuraHeat coating can handle temperatures up to 1,800 degrees F."
