Product Overview:

Description

Radiator Black Gloss Paint is just the right viscosity to spray-paint your radiator without damaging it

  • Won't block air flow between cooling fins
  • Won't interfere with heat transfer
  • Heat Dissipating Formula
  • Acrylic enamel (80% + gloss level)
  • Smooth texture
  • Withstands temperatures up to 300 degrees F
  • Resists chemicals and chipping
  • Won't block air flow between cooling fins
  • 12oz Net Fill
  • Ful cure in 72 hours at 0.5 - 1.0 MIL thickness

Standard engine paints are too thick for use on a radiator because they can interfere with heat transfer, and block air flow between the cooling fins. But Radiator Black Gloss is specifically formulated for your radiator, heater core and air conditioning condenser.

Application Tips

Radiator Black is heat resistant to 300 degrees F. This high gloss, low build finish is ideal for radiators. Heavier coatings restrict efficiency. To straighten fins, use our Radiator Plier & Fin Rake Kit (43078). Then wash and spray with PRE Painting Prep aerosol (10041 Z) to remove residual grease and oil. Most radiators require 2 cans. enamel based. Use a light coat of our Self Etching Primer (16014 Z) for greater durability. Use these products in a well ventilated area, or wear a respirator like our Pro Respirator (34029).

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Radiator paint Great gloss black finish on my Morris Cooper S radiator.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Gloss Finish like glass, the satin is flat Can’t speak to durability, but I’ve used the gloss and the satin. Gloss laid down like glass on my new aluminum radiator. The satin is no doubt a flat finish in my opinion. It looks closer to a bedliner spray and seems to have fine texture.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Excellent Results Original 55 Chevy but had to put in new radiator. Purchased aluminum for better cooling but needed to paint to look original. Eastwood Radiator paint did the trick. One can actually covered entire radiator but glad I have second can for touch ups later. Exactly as described. Went on clean and smooth and dried perfectly. Looks great and works great!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great Product and Customer Service I was looking for a product to paint my new aluminum radiator for my 65 Mustang convertible. I needed the extra cooling of the aluminum unit but wanted the black look of the original. I emailed Eastwood and they recommended this product to paint the aluminum radiator. One applied, it looks great and performs just as advertised. Very happy with this purchase!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Finish is incredibly smooth This works very well. I use all kinds of Gloss, Semi Gloss and Satin Spray Can paint restoring my GTO and my Formula. I don't have a paint gun so I have to use spray can paint.. I have tried all brands and types and they all are different as you know. Some great, some bad. Bought this for my new Cold Case Radiator. This paint went on my Aluminum radiator so perfectly with zero orange peel, blobbing or texture it was amazing. 2 light coats in the mid day sun. Let first coat dry for 10 minutes or so. It comes out of the nozzle perfectly. I had some left of course so I tried it on some brackets I glass bead blasted. WOW. looks great! Tried some on my Headlight bumper fillers that I blasted. YES MAAM.. If you don't need durability I would guess, this paint is good for ANY parts.. Im buying more to use on my Steering Column

Questions & Answers

What's the shelf life of the rad paint I have a new can its been in a cool place for about 4 years .

Asked by: Daniel
If stored in a temperature controlled environment then we would warranty this for 90 days from the purchase date. If stored accordingly then you should be able to get a minimum of 1-2 years out of it. Anything past this point you would need to test on scrap metal or a small section first.

Read all the questions/answers. One place you recommend using self etch primer and one place you wrote not to use the primer. I am confused?

Asked by: Mark5775
Primer is technically note required. However, when applying to a bare aluminum radiator surface- we recommend using a light mist coat of Self Etching primer first for best adhesion.

I have a stripped and clean copper Walker radiator from my 39 Ford I want to repaint. Should I prime with self etch prime or 2k epoxy prime before topcoating with your radiator paint? I see your etch prime is only rated for 170 degrees. 

Asked by: DK39
It is not recommended to prime a radiator before application of a radiator paint as it would be detrimental to the cooling process. Eastwood Radiator paints are formulated to transfer heat from the radiator and require no priming.

I'm taking my radiator to the shop for a chemical bath. Best prep for a gloss paint job?

Asked by: Nashman49
Wipe your radiator down with a wax and grease remover, or Acetone. Wipe it dry, let it gas off, and apply the paint.

im restoring a 1968 corvette should I use the gloss or satin for repainting the original Harrison radiator?

Asked by: paul427
Unfortunately this we can not verify. We sell generic shade options and can not match or cross-reference to any specific make models or years. We apologize for the inconvenience

Thinking of using to blackout my radiator on 18 mustang. Fairly new,what process would you recommend as the radiator will stay in car with nose clip off.

Asked by: Rob13
That would depend on what, if any paint is already on the Radiator. If there is paint on already, you must do a small test area on your radiator to see if there is any reaction. If there is no paint on the Radiator then, It is best to lightly scuff the radiator with a red/ maroon scuff pad. From here follow up with a light coat of self etch primer for the best adhesion.
