Black Painted Engine

[lrmathena]

Does anyone know how to keep a black painted engine looking like new. Bought a new Harley fat bob and gave the triglide to the wife. Alot of the engine is painted black and I would to keep it looking that way. Some people said to spray it with WD-40 or silicone

S-100 products.Most Harley dealers have it.

S-100 had a product called "engine bright". Harley recently bought that particular product and packaged it in a bigger Harley labeled product. It will keep the engine black and I use it in my detailing business. It comes in a spray can with a pin-point spray extender scotch-taped to the can. Any grey bits or fading will be restored to a black finish and it is heat resistant to a very high temperature. Hope this helps.

X2 on the S-100 engine spray. Does a very nice job.

Spray with armor all, let dry wipe up excess. Gets into all the little corners and brings the black back.

Do not get paste wax on the black wrinkled paint! It is a PITA to remove! S-100 works fine on keeping it fresh, but use sparingly.

Use tire spray does a good job cheap.
