Hi all!
How would you guys recommend a carb should be painted? Is this a good idea in general, or am I wasting my time?
So far I have followed my mechanics guidelines which were to use Mercruiser's own primer and then after it has cured fo a week then the final layers with "phantom black".
At this stage it got me thinking.. Will these paints really work and endure gas stains? Should I paint inside of the airhorn (avoiding jets) or not. I?m thinking that it's better to keep paint off from surfaces that guide air to the engine.
