PJ1 Frame paint- ok for engine too?

12 Sep 2014 07:39 - 12 Sep 2014 07:40

I have some PJ1 Fast Black, its the epoxy stuff for frames, code G on the can. Anyone use this on engine cases? Or will it burn off or discolor?

If I knew what I was doing all the time life wouldn't be any fun.

No, I would not. PJ1 "E" for engine! I use gloss black.
VHT paint is the best also.
Or you can use Dupli-color engine

I didn't notice that the PJ1 has a Fast Black for frames and another that its HI temp. rated. Just wondering if I could get away with it on the cases.

I can get VHT locally so I use that on the engine.
