Painting an engine
With my new 434 small block, I wanted to paint the block the same color as the car. I've heard that alot of guys use standard auto paint to do it and it holds up just fine.
Other than getting things wickedly clean, is there anything else I need to do to get it to hold up? Should I epoxy prime the block first ?( I have some DP90, which is black, so probably not the best primer color under red). Should I use base coat/clear coat or a one stage ??
Obviously I'd like this to be a one shot deal and have it hold up a long time...
