Engine Compartment Help
I'm ready to redo the engine compartment and saw a thread not long ago where a member mentioned a product he bought from Auto Zone or somewhere like that that is similar to the bed liner products. He said it worked great for painting the engine compartment. I can't find the post. Can anyone help me?

that doesn't ring a bell. I do remember a discussion about how to protect the wheel wells. Some people use a thick rubberized paint in the wheel wells to prevent rocks from flying up and causing cracks in the paint that are visible from the top. Others actually use a rubber like mat at the top of the wheel well. Don't recall using that type of paint inside the engine compartment.

Yea I see a lot of post about por-15 and I am considering this but this was a product bought at a auto parts supply, came with sprayer and all for a reasonable price. I'm pretty sure I saw it on this forum as it's the one I read the most, almost daily.
