Re: Eastwood engine paint

I pulled my engine this weekend and plan on painting it chevy orange. I am going to use PlastiKote chevy orange #200. I have done a lot of research and have found that this paint seems to hold up real well. I have also heard good reviews on the POR 15, but I read that PlastiKote is one of the best matching chevy orange paints around. I have been roughing up the paint all week and plan on cleaning it up for many hours to come. I bought the Eastwood PrePrep and it really works great. I really think it is just brakecleaner but don't take that to the bank. In my opinion if your going to paint the motor just go for broke and pull it out of the truck. There is so many little parts that can't be painted correctly while it is in the truck. I will try and get some pics on here as soon as I can. Here is a pic from the Chevelle Forum using PlastiKote Chevy Orange 200. Good Luck!
