Default Fuel Exposure Test Results

My sacrificial painted part was put to the test today as to check the resistance of this 2 part engine paint to gas.

Spilled gas on the part and allowed to evaporate twice @75F. No damage to the paint.

The part was submerged in gas. 5 minutes. No damage.

The part was submerged in gas for 4 hours. The paint was damaged, but did not fall away from the metal.

Standard rattle can engine paint would be damaged within seconds. I am very impressed.
