Default Painted a few things for the new motor

Well I stripped the block down since the last time I painted it. I wanted to do a better prep job. So this time I stripped the block, degreased it, washed it, and then dried it. After that I used acetone and wiped the entire block down with a brush, let it dry and began applying primer. I used 3 coats of primer followed by 3 coats of color. I used the Duplicolor high temp stuff. I think it turned out very nice. It looks very smooth. It is not glossy but rather it's like a satin/flat color. I really like it. Anyways, here's some pics!

Looks good. I've always liked black blocks/accessories.
