Is it just me or does anyone else notice the Moss maroon engine paint is nowhere near the factory original color? David Darby --

I have noticed this as well. It is a much darker maroon than what I ever see on am original engine. Then again, in another 30 years, it may match. Phil Bates 58 MGA 67 MGB 75 Jaguar XJ12C 66 Land Rov

Jim, is the Rustoleum paint suitable for hot steel surfaces? My impression was that one has to use paint specially formulated for high temperature steel. Peter, '74 BGT

The exterior of our engines doesn't get that hot, so the Rustoleum is OK. It won't work on the exhaust manifold or exhaust pipes where it will burn off. Jim
