Re: {Chrysler 300} 64 K PS pump paint



I have had great results using Rustoleum products, particularly their etch primer (gray green color) and satin black paint.  The etch prime creates a great foundation that dries quickly with a smooth finish and combined with satin black, typically results in a superior finish which is quite durable.  Recommend letting the primer cure (2-4 hours is sufficient), I've found some variance with satin black sheen, occasionally it has a bit more luster...closer to semi-gloss, which may be the result of temperature when painting or difference in primer curing time.

Good luck!

Pump, reservoir (can), brackets, and cap all painted semi-gloss leaded black enamel without primer from the factory for 64.  Actually a somewhat glossy semi-gloss than tended to fade to less gloss over time.  Used on just about all black painted items under the hood. 

 

Do not laugh but I have found Rustoleum black semi-gloss enamel to be a rather good match to factory for color and gloss.  Surprisingly durable.  It is inexpensive paint, however, that will create a boatload of overspray/dust. 

 

Some folks prefer just a bit more bling for their engine compartment.  Black gloss engine enamel (without clear coat) makes a good choice in that case. 

 

Over-restoration uses clear coat on everything.  Like glazed ham.  Might get more $$ at auction but the Club concours judges will actually deduct a couple points for over-restoration.

And the cap, is it painted or raw plating?

Hey list,

 

Can anyone comment on the original black paint finish on a 64 K power steering pump? Is it gloss black, satin, flat? The bracket seemed to be satin.

 

Thanks,

 

Allan
