Between the last 2 weekends painted some chassis parts along with some engine pieces. Did some rear end factory paint marks.

Rick I agree with Dave - Looking great! - question do you have any preference on the engine orange paint? reason I ask is whatever I used on my 302 I'm not happy with, I Don't remember what I used- Duplicolor? -as it turned almost flat orange after driving it I looked at a thread here and Seymour Hi-Tech EN48 was suggested, and I see several brands up on your shelf
thx Rich

Engine Paint
Hi Rich,
I have been using the Bill Hirsch stuff for all engine builds i have done. I have used everything from there Hemi orange for some 6 pack engines I built for some other guys as well as the Chevy orange for my cars. This last time i picked it up it seems to have a very long dry time, as in over a week or more. The parts still could not be touched a day after painting In the past it seems like it dired much faster. With Bill Hirsch it also seems that one time you get a quart and it is thin enough to spray and the next time im adding a reducer to because its to thick. The reason i like it is it sprays easy, drys glossy, and after a motor is fired and gets a few heat cycles dulls down just a bit to more of a semi gloss to satin. Very durable and you can touch up, heat cycle an engine and never tell where you touched up. |
