Re: Engine primer and paint
In Tucson, I take advantage of the Sun, and leave the part out in full sunshine to warm up, before shooting paint. I also shoot the surfaces down with Brake Cleaner, but let it evaporate completely [and the part to warm back up] before painting. I have tried it with hi temp primer and without and can't say one is better than the other. VHT is a division of Dupli-Color now, but that high heat range is better on headers and exhaust manifolds. Hi Temp [+500*F] Dupli-Color is OK.
If you're not shooting on bare metal, scuff the surface wth steel wool.
