POR-15 Engine Enamel, High Temperature Engine Paint, 16 Fluid Ounces, AMC Blue Green

This stuff stretches very far and lays out great. I used a foam brush, Done 3 coats on my block and still have 3/4 can left. Olds gold has a very nice finish and sheen! Just make sure your positive on the color because once this stuff dries it's EXTREMELY tough to get off!

Couldn't believe POR made this engine color for my 1967 MG engine block. Dries slowly , looks great. Made sure you wear gloves and cover anything you don't want it on. Clean with mineral spirits before cure. Don't think you can get it off anything after it cures! Clean block well prior to use and follow directions.

I have used this product on multiple occasions to paint engine components on several classic '50s Cadillacs. It is good for valve covers, blocks, intakes, water pumps, etc. You can brush it on or spray it on. I usually spray it. When you spray it, you can reduce it if you like but there isn't a need to reduce it much, something like 4 parts paint to 1 part reducer will give you better flow and still provide good coverage without drips. This paint is durable, you can paint hardware and torque to specification without it flaking off if you are careful. Like most paint projects, surface prep is key. I like to sand blast everything to get good adhesion and best results. Also you can use this product without primer if you use a metal prep but i prefer to use a good high-temp primer for best results. Save a classic Caddy from having a Ford blue engine block just because it was convenient to buy paint at your local auto parts store, and give this paint a try--you won't regret it.

Why did you pick this product vs others?: Great paint for my motor

This paint works great for the grill part but not so much for the fire box. Turned black from the heat from the firebox. Otherwise the cooking chamber has got to almost 400 and for the indirect heat part it holds up well.

Looks good to me

Goes on thick and is really tough. Deep black color. Kind of expensive due to shipping costs.

Nice finish, rock hard, covers well. Note: Do not get this on bare skin or anything you want to keep clean. It doesn’t come off, so wear gloves and a face shield unless you want to wear it for 2 weeks lol. I use this for several different applications; including engines, transmissions, and frame components. It will probably outlive me. If you do spill, hit it with a bunch of acetone quickly (or their cleaner) or you won’t remove it.

Good stuff

Rotors on my miata.

This is not engine quality paint. Paint on the manifold burned up after the first hour of driving. Not recommended.
