powder coating /engine block

<< < (2/3) > >>

pae:
I used this (available at Halfords)...



Did a pretty good job, covers well, doesn't run, dries fast, and has taken quite a bit of manhandling without coming off. Need to prep fairly well, but that applies to everything.

Finsihed job when putting it back in frame...



and a bit more complete...

Thanks for info and pics. if mine turns out to look half as good as yours I will be fair CHUFFED.

 ;D

Seamus:
I used Halfords own high temperature paint. Worked fine on the engine and barrels and head.
Not done many miles since, but it looks OK.

Good luck

I also used Halfords VHT "Aluminium" Engine Paint on my Sprint - it matches the alloy footrest hangers perfectly.

bobthebuilder:
Thanks for all the info and tips have looked at a few of the paints but most seam to need to bake in the oven, or at least exposed to high temps. As her indoors seams upset about the idea of me bringing it into the kitchen to put in the oven any other way to cure it,  again thanks in advance.
