Gordon1973 - Hey boss; actually all i did was buy the Dupli-Color 500 degree engine primer (grey) and the Dupli-Color 500 degree aluminum rattle can from O'reilly. I mad sure that I got as much of the dirt, oil, etc removed. I mainley used brake parts cleaner (Wal-mart) brand, some small and large wire brushes, some scotch brite pads. After I got it as clean as I could I sprayed the primer and I let it dry for about 30 - 40 minutes; even though it was probably dry before then, I was doing other things in the house. I then sprayed a light coat of aluminum waited about 15-16 minutes then sprayed another light coat of aluminum, waited another 15-16 minutes then a 3rd and final coat of aluminum, not a light coat, the 3rd one was heavier giving it a wet look. since it was a little cool I turned on my dual heat lamps on high about 2-3 feet away from the tranny and that was it. I waited about an hour or so and it was fine. We'll see how it holds up. But hell it looks pretty good on the stand.lol lol
