Engine paint

Odontologist

Umina Beach, Australia....Where does that part go?
I painted my cx500 engine with VHT primer and enamel...3 coats each, followed by 1 hour oven cure at just under 100 celcius.
I was then adviced to powdercoat if engine stripped. It was but now too late and deed is done.
I was told that paint tin can job wont last. I have no experience with this.
Anyone care to give their 2 cents worth?

VHT is solid.
Try not to let gas sit on it, but road grime oil etc will be no issue.
A gas spill here and there isn't going to destroy it either, but if you have a carb leaking and it sits for a few days it will make a mess.
In my experience at least.
