Engine paint to use

[Cpt Mark]

Hi,

My engines need a paint job badly. Will clean them up and Ospho them before painting, rattle can.

I can buy at any big box store engine, heat rated pain for xxx dollars or I can buy the manufacturers paint for a whole lot more dollars. Is there really a difference?

Yanmars if that makes a difference

Thanks,

Mark

Unless a paint expert chimes in, I'd say that Yanmar isn't in the paint business so a better-known paint brand easily obtainable is probably just as good to use.
