Mine has Rustoleum on it. -----Original Message----- From: neil N [mailto:musomuso@gmail.com] Sent: Tuesday, March 25, 2008 10:22 PM To: pdooley Cc: vanagon@gerry.vanagon.com Subject: Re: Engine Carrier installed: The Good Bad, and the ugly! --- ;^) Definitely. Sure was fun to have rest in place for mocking some engine peripherals up, but I'll pull it off and paint it ASAP. Any suggestions on best paint to use for such an exposed piece? I'll be priming with an etching primer. Given all the work I put into it, I"m tempted to paint it then top coat it with Urethane bed liner! Neil.
