Rocker Cover Paint

Post by sol-lude » Fri Jun 20, 2014 1:57 pm

right guys im checking the timing on the lude this weekend.

Was gonna paint the rocker but was wondering if there is any type of paint i need to use i.e. hammerite, gloss, heat resistant...what are people preferances and what is the outcome after driving as i know the H22a can get quite hot.

thanks in advance.
