TOPIC: 58 Bottom Cowl inside color??

58 Bottom Cowl inside color?? 12 years 2 weeks ago #71437

I'm trying to find out what color I'm supposed to paint the inside of the bottom cowl assembly on my Mark 58. Also what type of paint should I use?
Once all the grease was cleaned out and all the overspray from others repainting the thing I came down to a brassy looking color that even acetone wouldn't budge - man that is good paint.

Can I just paint it the same as I'm going to paint the outside?

Looks like you have been busy since your visit south.
I believe that the inside of the pans were all painted the same as the exterior. That is what I have found on all of mine anyway.

Well that makes it a heck of a lot easier. I was dreading having to mask all that area off.
Thanks Neil !
Yea I'm working on the Delbilt now.

It's even easier than painting the same color as the inside is generally just overspray from exterior color rather than a good even paint job. Also I would not paint the gasket surfaces better to seal to the metal faces rather than a layer of paint.
My two cents,
