Engine Paint
I am thinking of Painting My Engine Case, Cylinder Cases and Heads Flat Satin Black like the Nightster. Have anyone Painted their Engine Cases and how did it come out? I see that VHT has the High Heat Satin Black for Engine Cases and thinking of using that.

RE: Engine Paint
Make sure the engine is damn clean before you go painting. Eastwood.com sells prep that will take care of that for you. They also sell a ceramic based paint that is good up to 1200F. I would NOT recommend anything less.

RE: Engine Paint
The best high heat paint you can buy is Thurmalox Stove Paint, the stuff I use is part# 270-02 Satin Black.
This is the best black heat paint I have found in the last 30 yaers it is designed to run at high temperatures for hours at a time and it will also stay on chrome, I have 2 exhaust systems painted with this stuff and 3 differant air cooled engines, 2 Harleys and a Volkswagen.
I can't buy it anywhere here soI order it on line and it's worth the wait to get, I've been using this product for 3 years now and I will never again use crappy engine paint or header paint.

Same stuff that I posted from Eastwood.com, just a different label.
