Green engine enamel
Does anybody have a good source for the green engine enamel? I have one quart left of the Antique Ford Green and I will need more soon but everyone is out of stock. Does anybody have a source?
Thanks |

Sacramento Vitage Ford used to carry it. 916-853-2244. Also POR-15 makes the Ford green paint also.

Re: Green engine enamel
I’ve heard the POR “Ford Green” is brighter than the dark green Ford used. This has deterred me from using it.

Re: Green engine enamel
It seems now that the Macs/ Ecklers business has sold again we will be without a paint supplier of this brand/color of green engine paint.
Hopefully someone will take up production soon. Paul J. |

Re: Green engine enamel
I put some on a piece of steel and took it to my local parts house and they can match it with the camera. It’s a single stage paint and you have to mix the hardner with it but it’s very durable.

Re: Green engine enamel
Ford actually used two different shades of the green used on early Fords but major assemblies in build should match color on all parts. It's hard to believe that the paint is getting in short supply. I've still got a supply of 1K spray gun or brush paint and a few rattle cans but I had no trouble getting it from model A supply sources.

Re: Green engine enamel
I have a full-unopened quart of that paint I will never use. Its always been in a heated shop, about 10 years old, should be OK yet I would think. 1/2 price special today !!!
