colors/satin black
Both glossy black & satin black engine paint is
available from Eastwood. Plastikote also has semi flat, satin & gloss
black. I've seen that brand in Pep Boys.

engine colors
Hi,
In 1961 the Imp engine and valve
covers are black and the air cleaner is gold (same as my 1959, 1962 was the
first year the Imp engine was painted turquoise):
. The "glossy" part in the name is not
entirely accurate as it's a satiny gloss black instead of a highly shiney black
paint. Air cleaner, a/c hard lines, brackets--it works in all of those
places. For the a/c lines, I gently sprayed in into a glass bottle and
then used a camel hair hobby brush to apply it to the a/c lines (after wiping
them down with brake cleaner and B-12). It took a few applications, but
it looked good PLUS no disassembly.
