Wow ,they make quite a few products as well as paint,thanks Ken.
Ceramic Enamel - sounds good stuff, I'm still cleaning the engine unit up, preparation is time consuming, hopefully time well spent.

Neil, you have access to a Dremel or similar?

I have something similar to a Dremel.
I sprayed an additional 2 coats on the breather and will bake this at the correct temp and test.
Oddjob:
Bit late then if you’ve already sprayed it. I was going to suggest that you buy some plastic abrasive discs, search for them on the forum, you could then remove the paint only it those areas where the paint is blistered. I would remove a full section so you don’t leave marks left by the new paint sitting lower than the old paint. It’s something those discs excel at. They are also really good at removing casting marks and blemishes.
