engine paint? Options

[Ted95]

hey guys ive decided when the weather warms up a lil bit im going to clean up my engine bay a lil bit bc its lookin a little dirty for my likings... im going to paint my valve cover with regular paint but im planning on just touching up my head by doing a little masking and spray a lil silver..

the duplicolor rattle can engine enamel is great. I used it on my Olds Alero when i still had it, i could run that car for 6 hours, ad then pop the hood and set my hand right on it, it blocks heat like nobody's business, and if you can find the color you want, you can use the engine enamel as a base coat then paint over that with regular paint
