Re: Engine Paint
I have used the Bill Hirsch paint for the last 20 years. It resists gas and oil, brushes on very smooth and is very durable. You can also spray it. Excellent engine paint. Does not burn off or chip. Has a very long shelf life too. You will be pleasantly surprised. Just remove all oil and grease before painting.

Re: Engine Paint
Hirsch paint holds up very well. Not an accurate match to the authentic but it does hold up well.

Re: Engine Paint
I also recommend Hirsch paint. It applies easily and last a long time.

Re: Engine Paint
I have had good luck with KBS coatings paints. Flows out nice. Never used the Ford green so can't say about the match. The Ford blue matches well.
