Why is Duplicolor Engine Enamel 500º paint? Don't you have to use 1200º paint for valve covers? I realize they have that ("High Heat Paint") but why is what they call "Engine Enamel" 500º?

QUOTE(97lestyousay @ Feb 7, 2008 - 6:57 PM) [snapback]639156[/snapback] 500 would be block valve cover that sort of thing 1200 would be for headers exhaust stuff. Exactly. Use 500 deg whenever possible. It sticks better and lasts longer. Make sure you buy 500deg clear coat too. -------------------- 15PSI - 30MPG - Megasquirt Tuned
