      VHT makes high temp engine paints in varoius colors including gloss black. used it for years. radiators don't reach the operating temps that engines do. your radiator will love it. mike

          I use the radiator paint available from Eastwood. Just the right gloss and thickness. It's nice stuff!

              Spray it on thin

              The purpose of a radiator is to radiate heat. The more paint, the more it will hold the heat, so don't put a dozen coats on to make it look good.
