Rust-Oleum
®
Engine Enamel is formulated to create a smooth
finish on automotive engines and other automotive surfaces
which reach intermittent temperatures up to 500°F (260°C).
Engine Enamel features an advanced spray system that allows
you to spray at any angle, even upside down for those hard to
reach areas. A comfort spray tip with a wider finger pad reduces
fatigue caused by continuous spraying.
