METALCAST paint?
 

Has anyone used Duplicolor's metalcast paint? I found 3 posts on painting calipers with it, but I wanted to do my valve cover with it. I think a yellow anodized v/c would be the shit! The duplicolor page says it's good for high heat, and they list v/c on the application list. I just wanted to know if anyone had played with this before I screw up my new P5.

If it works for calipers, I don't see why it wouldn't work for your valve-cover. Plus, they show it on an exhuast pipe...It says 500 degrees F; hmmm...I went for the Duplicolor High Heat 1200 degree stuff for my brakes, but it's not metalic like Metalcast...:dunno:...So there you have it, I'm no help at all.:D

Had same idea....ordered paint waiting for it to arrive.....
Let me know if you have done paint yet and how the results are?
Planning on painting several pieces in engine bay if it looks good....cheaper then chrome plating

Haen't had the chance to do it yet, but it's in the works. right now I just waiting on getting my car fixed after my accident.:crying:
If you get it done, poast some pics, I'd love to see your results! what color are you going for. I'm after the yellow.
Later

just finished the painting with blue metalcast.....looks great....toss up between polished aluminum and anodized aluminum.....
very recommended....
very impressed
anyone wanna ungrade the look of their engine bay
this is it!!!!

Got any pics of the finished product? Would love to see how it looks!!

sorry no digital camera....could take with reg camera.....but wouldnt get on here for couple weeks...
trust me paint is real nice if you like blue red or yellow/gold
or the base paint is like polished aluminum

I used some metalcast paint for my fuse box lid, LMAO. I was bored one day and had the paint sitting around so "what the hell".

Looks ghetto, but I want to paint the valve cover the same color. Trying to get a silver/red theme going on but it's not working too well right now..

I have pics at webpage

painted value cover base coat
and heat shield-spark plug mount-engine hooks blue

dont do heat shield though.....heat caused blue to fade to green
now turning black.....probably strip it and go with base coat only
