Simple Paint Question
rbt1548:
As the title says, "Simple Paint Question " from a simple man!
As my tank and panels are away to get spruced up I am going to smarten up the engine and crankcase covers. I have looked through the forum and noticed that the general consensus for engine paint is Simonize VHT31D, which I am going to use, however, is it the Matt paint or the Gloss paint?, it's hard to tell what's on just now as looks like a satinish finish.
I would rather ask the simple question than make a howling mess of it.
Cheers
Nurse Julie:
SIMVHT31D is a semi gloss finish.
McCabe-Thiele (Ted):
E-bay seem to show both under the same paint code one has a part green label the other is part yellow.

They changed the packaging Ted. Both are the same paint inside.
McCabe-Thiele (Ted):
Interesting my green label does not describe the finish but the yellow label says MATT.
If I am honest I used both on my 400 engine - the first green label tin was more like satin or semi Matt. I thought the yellow label was definitely Matt?
