[QUOTE="craig, post: 133271, member: 1959"] Painting is still an on going plan with 2k rattle can being my solution for the engine cases, cylinders, heads. I have not decided what to do about primer coat for these specific engine pieces. All of the ancillary pieces -footrest support, engine plates, front kick stands, rear license plate holder, pivot bearing plate, brake plates, spring boxes, rear stand, etc....I normally would bead blast and take to my local powder coater......and I may do that now, but I want to see how this Spraymax does with my application. My weather has been too cold to pursue paint in my small heated shop. I am looking at Eastwood rattle can 2k gloss black engine heat paint and black primer as Spraymax might not be good for heads or cylinders. I do need to get the bearings installed in the case halves prior to paint , so that is next task. [ATTACH type="full" alt="20210108_CasePrep8.jpg"]39695[/ATTACH] Previous owner stripped and polished these engine cases some time in the distant past, maybe the sixties. [/QUOTE]
