Dupli-Color Ceramic Engine Paint - 12 oz. 12 Ounce DE1652

covers very well, exact Ford blue and looks awesome on my '65 Mustang engine block. Just make sure to 'decontaminate' the surface using thinner lacquer....NOT PAINT THINNER! it will help you avoid the 'fish eyes' which are hard to get rid of after the fact.

Malgré divers commentaires, j’ai hésité à commander. A la première commande, je n’ai pas reçu le bon produit, le service client a été très réactif ! Je l’ai recommandé, il est bien arrivé et en parfait état! Très contente de cet achat!

Finding reliable heat-resistant paint for my engine valve covers proved to be a challenge! Many had mixed reviews. Thankfully, my search concluded with Dupli-Color. I paired this Aluminum color with their Clear Coat as added protection:https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B000GKEXW0/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o09_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1They say most of painting is prep work, and they ain't wrong. I carefully removed oil grime letting the covers soak in degreaser, followed by scrubbing, and spray-down with brake cleaner. I wiped the surfaces with isopropyl alcohol until the towel came away clean. With a sweeping motion I then hit the covers with a heat gun on low until they were no longer cold to the touch, since it was winter when I performed this detailing job. A warm paint can doesn't hurt, either.I carefully followed the instructions on the label, which summarize:Lay down all coats 10 minutes apart, two light coats followed by a wet coat. I did the exact same with the clear coat. All coats must be done within 1 hour.One helpful tip, life is loads easier with this spray gun attachment for rattle cans:https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B0015RJ41I/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1While directions state the painted object can be handled in 3 hours, I was only able to wait an hour with the setting sun. I was worried everything would come off with handling, wires, and vacuum lines in the way, destroying my perfect job. I was surprised when this paint held beautifully, none came off during reassembly and I'm pleased with the results (see photos)! I'm two steps closer to that pristine truck engine bay.

This engine enamel alone is such a great product! I use the paint for several different projects around the car to include the brake calipers. I know they make a caliper paint however it doesn't always come in your color, so thankfully we have this stuff available. It's a great product under the hood for sure but as you see in the pictures I used the yellow enamel to help accent the aftermarket wheels on the BMW.

First off, this review is for "Universal White Engine Paint" only. I have had great success with Duplicolor's other paints.Ordered two cans of this paint for a motorcycle gas tank project. Used Duplicolor primer with no issue, but when I went to put on the white paint, it splattered all over the tank. I thought the nozzle might be blocked, so I cleaned it out with a wire and proceeded to try again. Same thing happened. I tried the second can I purchased and it wouldn't even spray out any paint. I brought the issue to Amazon and the decided to send me two new cans of paint. Both cans continuously splattered paint each time they were used. The paint also looked very thin and watery. This is after shaking both cans for well over two minutes, spraying onto another surface to try to clear and blockage, and cleaning out the nozzle.Once again, I have had great success with Duplicolors other paints.
