Need tips on painting my aluminum block
Followed my standard procedures for painting steel ( cleaned the crap out of it, scotch bright, cleaned again with break cleaner, sprayed with high temp paint 3-4 light coats ) but the paint is flaking off is some places and I haven't even fired up the engine yet. Is there something I can spray on it to get it back to bare metal, and once I do how should I prep it for a respray ?
Should I had used self etching primer first ?

To get paint to stick to aluminum you definitely want to use a self etching primer. Clean all parts with degreaser then use a wax & grease remover prior to painting. Hope this helps. Reason why I'd recommend the urethane paint with hardner
