Im pretty sure you can use any paint on radiator Ive used standed black spray paint on mine , and Its been fine up to now, but if you want you can use engine paint (car plan) if your quick with the brush it does dry fast and does not like you going back over with the brush again, smooth's out nice keeps its shine..

I think i just used normal paint, but it did flake off after a few months. HT spray paint should be fine. On 26th Jan, 2012 Tom Fenton said:

Just normal gloss black works for me. Give it a good coat of etch primer first. https://www.facebook.com/pages/Fusion-Fabri..._homepage_panel
