Thread: Painting engine

Tweet

Here is my experience.

I've used two part urethane paints on engines without a single problem.

The only reds I've ever had turn pink or orange are "cheap paint". Quality paint won't fade that badly....and I live in the ultraviolet capital of the world! :-0

When was the last time you saw bubbled paint on the hood of a Corvette?.....probably never? The problem is in the paint application. One of several possibilities is that they used lacquer spot putty, which will blister under a urethane paint.
