Radiator Paint for 78
Got my radiator back after flush and repair...had a crack at the inlet (upper) neck. But not happy with the gloss of the Eastwood "radiator gloss" black nor the Eastwood "radiator satin." The gloss is way too glossy and satin too flat. Typically, we look for semi-gloss so looking for suggestions to get this dialed in.

Try Rustoleum semi gloss black engine paint on the tanks only. It is an enamel and the gloss can be controlled somewhat by how wet you apply it. If you do not like it you can use it on the brackets and pulleys on the engine. Light coat of Krylon flat black on the fins. If the fins are not too bare you can leave tham as they are. mike...
