CB750 / Re:Source of Engine Enamel in the UK
« on: September 18, 2006, 06:52:14 PM »
Hi Jim,
          E mail sent, have finished the house renovation and am now back to Honda renovation.
Have completely stripped the bike, removed the head and barrels, have sprayed the cylinder head, barrels, oil pan and oil filter housing looking good so far.
Sprayed the parts left to dry over night and then baked in the oven for 1 hour at 200oc. The hardest part was removing the old paint and the oxidised aluminium, lots of work with the Dremel required, even though the head and barrels were soaked in a bath for 2 days at my local car engine shop.
Would attach photos if I knew how !

Cheers

Dennis

Have not used the paint yet as I am busy renovating my daughter new house so the bike is on the back burner. Have the cylinder head off at the moment to get some broken studs fixed so I will try the paint on that first and report back

CB750 / Source of Engine Enamel in the UK

I have been looking for an engine enamel that matches the orininal colour on my CB750F1 crankcases for quite some time, then saw an address on the SOHC/4 Owners club forum. This led me to US Automotive who sell VHT engine emanel in the UK. It is heatproof and fuel proof. I ordered 2 cans via their website which duly arrived within 3 days. It costs

Bit late on this one but better late than never, I bought my CB750F new in 1976 and the side panels were grey.

Has anyone found an engine enamel to match the silver grey on CB750 crancases and barrels/heads ?

Cheers
