I just use a can of hammerite on most thing, even the block.

i got mine done by bodyshop at work, left it with them said to paint it in any black they are using. Had it back a week later, just normal car paint - sumps dont get to hot so dont NEED high temp paint. Lovely gun finish and its been fine for last 500miles.

Key is to degrease them well for longetivity (sp?)

Prep is definitely the key to the paint staying on :agree:
