I have Simoniz paint that but it does not really want to spray inside the fins very well - might be holding the can too far away - I might just spray some into the cap then brush it in first.

Never had a problem spraying the fins in silver or black ;)

Just to help me at a later stage with my next project, how many cans of the silver paint would I need to buy to spray the complete engine, obviously it will all be separate parts not a single lump!
McCabe-Thiele (Ted):
I used three on my 400 with quite a bit left over in the almost empty cans that when they started to splutter I used for brushing some bits as required.
Laverda Dave:
Thanks Ted.

My advice ... get yourself some Duplicolor DE1615 with ceramic .. that's what all of the guys and me on the US site use. Very close to original Honda shade. Hard to get hold of but worth the effort IMHO
