[T3] engine tin paint


<x-charset ISO-8859-1>I am surprised no one mentioned this option yet: POR-15 or it's high temp counterpart POR-20. I have used neither (yet), but considering the hard durable finish POR is known for, it seems a good choice. Anyone?

There is also a home powdercoating kit sold by Eastwood. Apparently you need a dedicated oven (wouldn't want to contaminate your food w/powdercoating toxins). I've been considering this option (& I have an unused large '50's oven in the basement near a gas line). Anyone have any experience with this kit?

I just had an Audi 5 cyl. rebuilt for my Quantum & it's red, silver, yellow, lime green, light blue, purple...
It was a bit of a shock when I first got it, but it <is> one of a kind, and very practical when it comes to chasing leaks.
