Correct Engine Paint

Post by sed213rr@gmail.com »

Where can I find correct color engine paint. I've restored my engine in the past, but I'd like to use correct shade silver paint this time.

The last paint I used was only a few Angstroms off, but I'm embarrassed to say who marketed it !

Dupli-color Silver/Met ...seems to be the preferred paint of choice on the forum...all paint fades so what do you have to compare to? are you parking beside a zero miles showroom model that's never seen sunlight?...
CBX a work in progress, still improving...GS1150EFE completed and awaiting modifications.....RD350, remnants in boxes scattered throughout the garage
