Re: Removing Engine Paint for New Paint
Just one (1) way, for one (1) time engine painting:
I do it quickly to save valuable time and use vintage, toxic "Kud-zit" gel.
But, don't forget the vintage engine re-builders' selling points:
"Rebuilt Engine with a Fresh Coat of Paint." (Old time lead-oil paint worked over old caked dirt and grease ....... all engines guaranteed to run better with a fresh coat of paint.)
Old engines will take several coats of Kud-zit followed by several coats of POR 15 water based Marine Clean to go through several layers of paint/grease.
Finalize with POR 15 Marine Clean, POR Prep & Ready, (2) coats of POR 15, and (2) coats of POR 15 engine green ...... paint engine once in a life time ...... no rust ever forming around head gasket area for several centuries.
Just don't have time to waste removing old paint and re-painting.
