There is a better wrinkle paint than the VHT stuff, my mate has used it on his block. If I'd a known about this stuff I'd a used it instead of the VHT.

Ok, so does this actually make the engine bay look better or not? Is it a PITA of a job to do?

The VHT wrinkle finish looks good but doesn't last, it was trialled in the early days by Doug_RS2 and Mark Halligan if you look at their threads

[Christophski]

So it flakes off? then looks rubbish?

What have you used spike and does it not burn off from the heat? it looks quite good. My brother had a cover powder coated orange on his caddy and that looks awesome being smooth but.

the photo was taken today and it was done over 12 months ago, I had it vapour blasted first then left it in shed overnight with heater on to warm it up, it is halfords metallic black (looks grey when on!!)high temp spray.

I have done a couple of track days and have aux rad removed so its definatly been up to workin temp
