engine paint

Anyone know where to find a a bronze engine enamel? Or better yet, has anyone heard of a place that allows you to mix a particular colour of engine enamel?

Re: engine paint

My painter just used the same paint as the body color. He said it is good to 350 degrees.

Re: engine paint

You might try the makers of POR 15 they may be able to custom mix the color you desire. Their engine paint kits are the best, and heat resistant

Re: engine paint

Didn't some 60's Oldsmobiles have bronze engine blocks? If so, maybe some resto compnay sells high heat engine paint in that color.
