My engine is finally in the shop and the fellow there is recommending duplicolor. He said he heats up the engine a bit then applies the first coat lightly. Then a series of light coats.
He did however say it's been a while since he painted a Pontiac blue.
So I am just wondering if the Duplicolor paint available is correct looking.
If not what is?
I saved a link a while back on this subject but lost it. Looking at history I can't find it on topic.

I used por-15 high temp silver as a primer on bare block then used engine paint from The Parts Place. Afterwards when still tacky I sprayed with hightemp clear,that was 4 years ago and still looks like the day it was sprayed .
