Just an FYI, I emailed Krylon, and they told me about their sister site.
Engine Enamel & High Heat
Thank you for your inquiry. Actually, I would recommend a product by our sister company, Dupli-Color. They offer their Engine Enamels and their High Heat products and both have been tested for such applications and have a large variety of colors available. You can read more about those products at this link to their website: Engine Enamel & High Heat
If you have any additional questions, please ask.
Thank you,
Jared

How did you get the black letters? Are they decals? If so, where did you get them. Here is a pic of mine.

Goto either grandprixstore.com or reflectiveconcepts.com and get the engine cover overlay set. Reflective concepts is cheaper if I'm not mistaken, and I just ordered a set for my GTP. LOTS of color/reflective combinations to choose from.

thanks, and kinda. i took them off but had them powdercoated. i will never paint a metal part again. its just not worth it, powdercoating is so much stonger.
06-07-2008
How do you powercoat something, or is that something you have to take them and have it done?
06-07-2008
i see thanks for the info

Ya you have to send it to a shop. Unless you have the oven and equipment. Either way its not easy.
06-07-2008
Ok, negative on the Oven and Equip, so what is so hard about painting it yourself?

You can pick up all you powder coating supplies and materials at
Eastwood Company: Auto Tools, Body Repair, Classic Car Restoration, House of Kolor Paint, Powder Coating
if you really want to do it,,, pick up a used kitchen range with working oven, works really good for small parts, (or wait till the wifey isnt home and use the one in your kitchen

prepwork makes the paintjob. if youi prep them good, the paint will be good too.
