What is the Best engine paint? was created by uneasy_rider
Not sure if this should be here or paint and bodywork, but anywho. I am looking to do a satin black finish on a complete 750H engine and would like to know what everyone on here uses and has good results from. I am not going to dissasemble the engine, not worried about it being a show piece, just looking for a nice, durable finish. I don't think the typical rattle can paint would hold up, but would love to hear whet y'all have had luck with.
