I am re doing my flaky engine cases and sump. What have you guys and gals used? Blocks and cylinders appear ok ish so I shall leave those. 2002 ST4S mat mid grey in colour
I used Simoniz Engine Enamel on my 748 sump & crankcases (but not the crankcase covers). I used an ‘aluminium’ colour one, it may come in other colours, so far, so good.
Cheers Paul, This stuff? Was it a fair match? https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/SIMONIZ-...380237&hash=item4db296b08c:g:IG0AAOSwbu1fBKU1
That's the one, slightly different labelling to the can I have but maybe they've repackaged it. Yep, it's a good match for the original colour paint on mine; the 'silver' bit below. I don't have a photo of the rear of the crankcases which were the worst part.
Hi Johnny, I meant the sump. The crankcase covers on my 99 748 were a dark grey (looks more like black in the photo but it’s not) I matched it by using Zinc Phospate and lacquer.
Last time I had something done, which is a few years back, a side cover was 12 pound if I remember right. Not much more than a rattle can of paint would have been.
