Crank case paint, again!!

(1/6) > >>

oldboy:
Sorry, another paint question. Anyone on this forum used AutoTek sliver/grey VHT engine paint for their crank cases. Tried the Simoniz aluminum VHT on the barrels and it seems a bit to bright for my liking.

Sesman:
Sorry, iv’e not used that product. I thought the same about the simoniz, but having assembled the whole engine and  fitted in place it seems to dull down, but remain ‘fresh’ looking.

oldboy:
Interesting!!  I may just get a can and give it a go, maybe on the cambox breather cover, something easy to strip the paint off should it look crap or is affected by a few drops of petrol!! Unless anybody comes up with a bad experience with this paint.

Nurse Julie:
The Simoniz SIMVHT31D is the closest colour to factory finish we have ever found.

Must admit looks nicer in the frame than the engine sat alone on the bench.  On scrolling through the parts list on Dave Silver site, they actually sells this Autotek paint in Silver/grey??
