Were 500 casings originally polished alloy or sprayed with Aluminium paint?
Matt_Harrington:
I was thinking of cerakote (mebbe silver) on the engine I'm going to rebuild rather than VHT type paint. Anyone had this done a while ago? If so, is it still OK?
I had my Guzzi rocker covers cerakoted and I have to say they are very durable.....
Roo, did you say Nathan Cerakoted your engine??
Matt
Oddjob:
Roo has his engine done in Cerakote IIRC.

Nathan has done two for me , they look mint, have a look on my 550 started thread. I'd grab the page but sitting in deprtures at Savannah air port and off in ten so need my adult head on and concentrate. I only saw this as i was closing down before boarding. Give him a shout, I havent spoken to him for a bit but hes more than likely flat out as ever so give him 3 weeks to sort it if you decide to go that way. Remind him to get some heatproof tape to cover the mating surfces, he forgot on mine as it was a saturday morning cash job, it comes off dead easy with a brass brush but its more particulate and another job. Just saying. Well worth it though it looks mint. Adios. 8)
