[DeTomaso] High temp paint for heads

That sounds promising.
FWIW, my experience:  The typical engine enamel rattle can (500F) eventually
burns black at the top of the exhaust ports.  Plasticote makes a high
temperature silicone-based rattle paint (900F) that does not burn on the
exhaust ports.  However it takes twice as much to cover, has a matte finish,
and thus doesn't look as good at first and gets dirty easier.  I find it
matters little because my engines all get dirty and dull because I drive the
s**t out of my car.  Others' results will vary.

Chuck,

I just saw a video from  East wood about a new two part epoxy paint ($23)
all in one rattle can. You puncture the inner can on the bottom that holds
the activator, shake and spray (kinda cool). They also talked about high
temp paint too (600F?).

The two part epoxy primer that Bill turned me on to a few years ago is
great!

Dear Forum,


                 In the last two or three years, someone on the forum
commented about a high temp engine paint from Eastwood (????) that they had
used on the heads and engine with good results.  I can't figure out how to
search the archives to track it down.  So, if the original poster reads
this, then send me an email.  Thanks.

                         Warmest regards, Chuck Engles
