Thread: engine block two stage paint?

Urethanes with hardener will hold their color and gloss far longer than air dry rattle cans of any kind


Hotrodpaint is right. Here is another shot I found of Dan's transmission that was painted with urethane. It will look like this for years, and hold up through countless cleanings. You can do this in a home garage with normal spray equipment.

Wow. Just what I wanted to see and hear. So was that a single stage ,the base coat and clear mixed together? I have the base coat and the clear along with an etching primer from dupon and not sure if its the right combo to spry the block with.

Either will work, but if it's a metallic, like this transmission, a two stage will look slightly better.

Will shoot it with a two stage and will inform you guys when its complete. Thanks

Old post, but have a question. Can a block be painted with metal flake, around an .004 then a clear coat over that?
