Repainting carbs

[Jet Set]

Is there a special procedure for painting the outside of a carb that I am working on? It is black and some of the paint is chipping off. Is there a special paint for this, or is it powder coated?<br /><br />Thank you, <br />Jet Set

Re: Repainting carbs

I wash them with carb cleaner,tape off the openings with metal tape,and shoot them with a good spray paint, rustolium makes a metalic midnite black, has some metal flake in it that looks great. then i clear them with a clear spray paint, you must get all the flakey stuff off first with a small hand held wire brush.
