E-TECH - YELLOW - Car/Bike Engine Enamel Paint - 250ml

This paint is brilliant ! Its very thin, & a little bit goes a long way. It's really highly pigmented. This 1 tin has done my MX5 mk1 1.8 engine & gearbox with 2 really good coatings. If you want a lighter shade, pre paint the engine with a light colour, then apply. My gearbox was already painted a very light silver, then I decided to paint it yellow. This produced a lovely yellow, the colour of the writting on the box, however, my engine head & block were not pre painted in a light colour, & I ended up with a more of a mustard colour.This runs really easy, so only use a tiny bit at a time.

I didn't expect anything of high quality due to it being cheap and i was right 🙄 terrible quality and I certainly wouldn't use it on anything that people can see I.e callipers 🤔

The engine has had two coats and looks ok, but I feel it needs a third or forth to look as it should.Easy to apply and clean up.A small pot that goes a long way.

Look at the pictures - from this to this. Quality paint that sticks to metal.

Used this product on my daughter's 13 year old Citroen as practice before attempting the same job on my own car.After preparing and cleaning the calipers and carriers I sprayed on an etching primer followed by hand painting E-Tech by hand. Finish was very smooth and glossy after 3 coats but marked easily during reassembly of the components and required a further 2 coats in-situ. Reasonably happy with final result but will be spray painting the calipers on my own car with an alternative product.
