Congrats on the new smoker! To protect the paint on the new smoker on the firebox may i suggest using some mineral oil or something that i have recently discovered works well for the inside of the CC for seasoning or general greasing before cooking and the outside of the FB... Crisco grilling spray. Spray on the outside of the FB all around and when you fire it up it will bond to the paint and prevent the peeling.
Happy Smoking,

Aaron great suggestion. I will have to keep a look out of this next time I'm out and about. This is something I need to start keeping around. I plan on doing that deep clean soon on my smoker and this would be excellent for the re-seasoning process. Hopefully, it will help with the new paint once I do some touch up as well.
