PJ1 is usually favorite for this

i have found this to be the best. some might disagree but i have used this paint for nearly 30 years + have recommended it to others on this site with excellent comments

Do you mean the gloss casing covers on a 900R John , or the satin finish on the engine itself........... or is it maybe some other sort of GPZ.

Sorry forgot to say they are the shiny outer casings on a GPZ 1100a1 the previous owner decided to polish them .
Thanks John

i thought pj1 can,t be got anymore due to it,s contents being too hazardous ?

would they be better in black chrome/enamel/ceramic? rather than paint

I think PJ1 was taken off
The market due to not being labelled correctly/ serious hazard!
Good stuff,just relable .

You can't get Satin Black any more that's correct.

I had these outer casings powdercoated gloss black. The rest of the motor was painted with PJ1 satin black.

I've been trying to find some ceramic engine paint in large sizes, but have only found this in cans from Duplicolor and another from VHT

i did find somewhere in the UK that sells both but can't remember - googled it.
