Where can i get "official" british green engine paint for a 1275. Does the paint color have an official name. The parts I got were painted John Deere green and I know that can't possibly be the corre

POR-15 sells it in brushable form; they may have aerosol as well, so they are probably worth checking. I think Moss sells aerosols. You could buy one of those self-contained sprayers that consist of

Yup. They're called "Pre-Val"'s, True Value has them for $3 or $4. Use a little more thinner than normal - they clog easily. If you have a sample (like an old valve cover) you can get good stuff at

Bill Hirsh has excellant engine enamels. Either by the spray bomb or quarts. I've bought quarts to spray the big items, then use a brush for touch up. Flows really well with minimum brush marks. Try

John's correct, I feel, and the color is excellent. You might try Hirsh paint in one of those True Value bombs if you don't like brushing. My Hirsh catalog ('98-'99) does not show Healey engine paint

Also try www.hirschauto.com. Used their stuff for years and think it is the best. About $10 for 14oz spray can and $25 for a quart. Bob _______________________________________________________________

Hi All, Interesting bit on the engine colors. I just got through looking at Horlers book and it looks like all 948 and 1098 engines were painted the green that is the same as Morris engines. With the

I bought some of this stuff and it isn't the same "POR-15" material that's in base product. They sell it strictly as an engine enamel, probably with slightly higher heat resistance. My experience wit
