First Time Engine Detailing

[Liaison]

Instead of creating a new thread I thought about Highjacking this one, I saw in the tops ticky that someone seems to have used hamerite to paint their actual engine silver? Is this a wise thing to do?

I'd use a high temp paint personally but smooth Hammerite would probably be ok. When I cleaned my engine bay I used Jizer spray which is a very good degreaser then carefully hosed it down and I'd advise to clean the engine with a product like this before you paint it
