I want to clean, prep and paint my '74 transaxle. I was thining of using a POR 15 product. Is there a problem with doing this? What type of metal is the trans case? My car is just a Sunday drive. I've read that some people think painting a trans could cause over heating which if this is true painting it with POR 15 would be a real problem considering it creates a completely non-porous surface. Any thoughts would be helpful. Thanks.

Mine was painted black. Not sure with what. It was that way when I got the car but has held up very well with no problems.
