   I was thinking of reducing and spraying.  Brushing is certainly easier...did you get brush marks?

	Brushed the POR-15 Black Velvet on, and nothing afterwards. Did it before it was on display at The 51st Masters in May 2010. Since then, I've put about 60 hours on the motor!

	Marty, you did not spray bomb over your manifolds/risers..did you? Just sprayed the high temp POR? How long ago did you do it?

	If you get it on you, use paint thinner or reducer within 10 minutes. After that it's toast As for just POR15- it's not UV Resistant. You have to spray bomb something over it within 20 minutes. And yes we sell tons of that Equipment/Tractor paint at CarQuest. We have a local Valspar Company in town, that we sometimes have to frequent.

	POR-15 will not come off your skin, no matter what you try, it needs to wear off. we had a kid painting a frame for us underneath and i warned him...he had paint on his face for a week. i find the por 15 gets very brittle and chips very easy unlike an enamel, FWIW I find the TSC equipment enamal (22.00 a gallon) which also is made by Valspar is the best thing to use on anything from painting engines, transmissions, frames even trailers

	I used rustoleum epoxy (non- high temp) paint on the manifolds 3 years ago & they are holding up ok. POR-15 has good products, go for it!

	I have used regular POr15, and the stuff is amazing. Tough as nails. I simply painted my manis and risers with high temp engine paint and it has held up very well

	I have bead blasted my manifolds and risers. I am thinking of trying the POR 15 "Black Velvet" high temperature paint. Has anyone used this?
