No I do not and from what I have read, IIRC is not to use a clear coat, as it will turn yellow over time due to the engine heat...
This is the high temp heat paint that Cliff has used...it gives a very good finish as you have commented on and can see in the pics...I am very satisfied with the results... A side note, I did not even do a "heavy" color coat as I have done in the past. IMO it was not needed to get the achieved results today... ![]()

Back home from the shore, although not great weather, still good to get away....
Also would like to wish everyone a Happy Memorial Day, and to be thankful for everyone in the Armed Services, past, present and future. For without Them, our Freedom would be non-existent... ![]() Time to get back to work, just finished painting the plenum in the open paint booth.... ![]() Took awhile for prep, used Clorox wipes (they are without bleach) and do a great job of removing grease on aluminum as mentioned before. After a number of wipe downs, I then used the Mineral Spirits for a few more additional wipe downs to make sure the surface was as clean as could be.... ![]() before.... ![]() one of my famous tape jobs....lol ![]() ![]()

first coat...
![]() followed the same technique used on the coolant pipes, light even sprays with drying time in between, and no heavy color coat!!! ![]() the finished product...I think it came out decent... ![]() I kind of like the lettering painted silver, I may just leave it this way.... ![]()
