Default Gold Cad Paint Question

Many of you have used the correct gold cad paint on your actuators and brake booster. Is it the Eastwood three step gold cad system?
Thanks
Eddie

Eddie,
I think it is Eastwood. I tried the Gold Cad spray from Virgina Vetts. It is a single can. It does not look original at all
Good luck
By the way, I finally got around to putting your hood mat on about two weeks ago, looks good

I too was going to go this route until I seen it in person. Doesn't look original at all. :nonod:

The Eastwood three step Cad is $40.00 :eek: :eek: I want to paint my actuators...not preserve them into the next millenium. I will look at the V-Vetts paint. Thanks Gill...
