Default Need Source for Black Chassis Paint

I'm changing the engine out and would like to spiff up the engine bay. A couple of areas need the paint touched up. Anyone have a good recommendation for C4 chassis semi gloss black paint preferably in a rattle spray can?

Must be getting close!
I would use this and if too flat go over with satin black after POR15 has cured completely.

I agree or if it is to much of a hassle just put that engine in my car. Will she be ready for Carlisle?

Phil

I'm with Yun on this one and love the POR-15 that I did my chassis with; they do have semi-gloss and it will last your lifetime and more. I don't think they have rattle can though, but it does brush on nicely without evidence of brush strokes, etc. You can whack it with a hammer and it won't chip or get damaged.

For rattle can stuff Rustoleum Appliance Epoxy is hard to beat.

Have had trouble painting over POR-15 but that could have been too soon.

Cheers,
