914World.com _ 914World Garage _ Paint for engine tin - is there a perfect match out there?

Posted by: tod914 Jan 7 2008, 10:01 PM

Looking into touching up some areas on my engine tin. I don't want to power coat since the number codes and stickers would be ruined. Most of the off the shelf paints are a pure black. The tin seems to be a 90% black or so (has a very slight grey hue to it). Any suggestions on what paint to use? Or a place that can match a high temp paint in a rattle can?

Thanks,

Tod

I don't know. Sorry. But if you ask in the originality forum they might... Good luck

DupliColor makes a low gloss high temp black that's close. It's got a bit more gloss though. You might be able to doctor it with a dusting of flat.
