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? |

Designed a bunch of magnesium parts in m past, and the guy from the magnesium institute recommended an acid "pickle" to keep the parts from corroding, The books that he sent also recommeded a zinc coating as being a sacrificial anode.
Zinc chromate paint is one choice but that material is on the "hazardous material" and hard to find. It's also a little "soft" so I used a thin layer of a Dupont 2 part self etching primer (516S- 615s?) that contained zinc and sets up very hard . Then a thin coat of wheel silver. |
