I'm tring to paint the brake booster, radiator, horns, and oter items in the engine bay. What paint should I use? I know the brake booster has to be high temp paint, maybe even the radiator? Thanks

You might want to check out Eastwood's web-site. I bought radiator paint from them. You are correct in that it is heat resistant and won't clog the fins. They have other paint too.

Just got their catalog in the mail the other day, and they sell everything you need.

They are quick, painless and they don't hassle you about returns.

I guess it depends on if you're going for OEM restoration or just a good looking finish. Believe it or not, I've had great success with regular Krylon spray paint that I purchased from Wal-Mart. With proper surface prep, it does the trick. It dries quicker than Rustoleum, is much cheaper than Eastwood and comes in a decent variety of colors. Flat, Semi & Gloss black, bright and dull silver and metallic plus bright colors I've used for my engine and dip stick pulls.  I've even used it in 'high-temp" areas such as my engines and on brake calipers without any problem.  The only thing I've used Eastwood for is special coatings, like the wrinkle finish or cadmium plating.
