Engine Paint
« on: November 02, 2018, 02:16:43 PM »
I've bought  a spray can of engine paint for my CB400F2. On the can it says 'dries at ambient temperatures and resistant to 180 degrees centigrade.
Is that good enough? My oven gets hotter than that, I've got cold feet!

Nope, nowhere near it. I take it that the paint isn't VHT ?

It doesn't say VHT on the can...just 180 0 C...  This one..https://www.halfords.com/motoring/paints-body-repair/specialist-decorative-paints/halfords-engine-enamel-aluminium  However, I've just read a review on the same site I don't like... maybe I'll give it a miss. Recommendations?
