Painting ZF? | The De Tomaso Forums

PanteraWillMember

Hey guys. Looking for recommendations on paint type for the ZF. I painted my last ZF many years ago and its holding up superbly. I seem to remember it being a 2 part poly eurothane but not sure.

Suggestions?

I used Eastwood's Aluma Blast, and I really like the result...

Aluma Blast works for me, too, on the intake and the ZF. Photo ~4 years after spraying.

My preference is bare aluminum. It is easy to maintain and looks good in perpetuity. It is unaffected by clutch fluid. If coolant etches it, it can be buffed off.
