Is it too much to ask for engine paint to stand up to anti-freeze?
I'm pissed at Hirsch Auto Paints!
I went to clean up a small anti-freeze (50% mix) pool that developed overnight (From the thermostat housing, no biggie, it's already fixed.) and a spot of the new engine paint came up with it right down to the cast iron! You'd swear that there was paint-stripper on it! A couple of other spots are discolored from being exposed. AM VERY DISSATISFIED with this paint. I spent countless hours prepping this engine and spent top-dollar for what was supposed to be the best engine paint around. I expect top-of-the line engine paint (or any engine paint for that matter) to stand up to a minor anti-freeze exposure. I don't know what recourse I have. I sent off an email to them tonight. I'll see what they have to say. I fought with this paint enough while painting my engine and now this!
