evinX Posted August 1, 2016 Share Posted August 1, 2016 Im going to paint my manifold shield, but not sure what steps/ type of paint to use. I think i this could work high build primer - base colour - 2k clear coat I did my plastic cam cover this way and it holds well. But not sure on the metal shield, anyone got any suggestions on how they did theirs? cheers, Kev Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ripped_fear Posted August 1, 2016 Share Posted August 1, 2016 Mine was done at a body shop and no special paint was used, just the normal. It took 4 years before it started to Discolour around the bolt points. On my tt I kept it simple and have used matt black so the clear doesn't degrade Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kendo11 Posted August 1, 2016 Share Posted August 1, 2016 Use something high heat, I used normal black spray can as you'd used elsewhere and it melted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
