Out of interest: will this give a glossy or mat/dull finish/surface?

It's semi gloss, semi satin, so halfway in between satin and gloss. Very similar to OEM Honda finish. If you want any photos of the engines we've used it on, which is all the engines we've built for ourselves and customers, PM me your email address and I'll send some over to you.

Dupli-Color DE1615 Ceramic Aluminum Engine paint

Hard to get hold of now though in the UK ... much closer to original Honda enamel than any other IMHO

SteveW:
Is the Simoniz paint resistant to petrol?

McCabe-Thiele (Ted):
Pretty much if you have baked it as per instructions.

I used to use a paint called Five Wheel Silver back in the day. Worked a treat
