If you can find a powder coater that uses Cardinal powder you can get rattle
can touch up

paint for it. You can also get clear powder coat if you wanted to polish it.

B Anodizing or powder coating might be two good coatings

I hadnt thought of doing either, but have those resources.

Polishing and then powder coat clear might be another choice.

Hi,

Even though I got one of the original aluminium engine plates, I've yet to
install them, yet. However, Khartu has a New Year's Resolution to loose some
weight, so the plate will be installed in the next few weeks.

The question is: are folks painting these plates (or anodizing, etc.)?

I have to be honest, I don't think I've even noticed that folks have installed
these on the cars that I've looked at, so that tells me that "we" aren't
polishing them before installing...

If folks are painting, please share what you're using as a primer bacause I
have really crappy luck with getting paint to stick to aluminium.

regards,
rml
