Anyone use Eastwood's radiator paint? I'm considering painting my radiator while the engine is out. It's currently natural aluminum. Just wasn't sure of the quality of the paint and if anyone had some suggestions.

Thanks

Yes and it has held up for about 9 months now. Looks just like the day I painted it

Damn, Randy. Were you waiting for me to make my post, lol?

Did you just spray it on or prep the surface before hand beyond just cleaning it?

Thanks for the quick response!

Thanks for the reply. Did you use two cans like suggested for full coverage? What about prep?

Thanks!

My radiator was brand new. Now i only painted the front of it, side, and underneath. I have ALOT left in one bottle. No prep work here at all when i sprayed it other than wipe any oil off of it. I made sure i went at diff angles to get the paint in the fins better
