Want to refresh the transaxle. Have cleaned and cleaned the exterior but want to maybe paint it to make it look nearly new. Have seen various pix of trans painted with Eastwood paint but search wasn't helpful.
What have people used with decent results? |

Besides cleaning off the heavy duty oil/dirt deposits, what should you do to prep the case for paint? The aluminum appears to be sort of porous and I would hate to see the paint peeling off after putting in the effort to apply it.
