(http://images.oreillyauto.com/parts/img/medium/kry/3370.jpg) Here's the only picture I have of my intakes painted, but you can see what it looks like, I had to sand it off to make the intakes fit different tin...but you get the idea (http://www.autosportlabs.org/files/34intake_197.jpg) Title: Re: race-trim color finish Post by: speedwell on July 23, 2010, 21:58:52 pm the speedwell linkage had the same treatment , mine is a repro and don't have the original treatment but , i've reproduced that finish with 3M antigravillon ,it's gravel protection with a special texture like the RACE-TRIMm finish
So far I haven't had problems with the heat of the engine, it hold on my linkage, but on manifold it will hold too ???

Title: Re: race-trim color finish Post by: Zach Gomulka on July 24, 2010, 01:51:59 am I use the Krylon stuff. 3 coats, about 5 minutes apart, then wait 10 minutes and hit it with the heat gun. It works on Slinger's valve covers, so I'm sure it will work on intake manifolds.
