    Today at Alf's Mustang Garage, we are back to rebuilding this 289 Ford small block Windsor. In this video we demonstrate how we prep our engine blocks for paint and then paint them. Special thanks @UncleTonysGarage for an outstand demonstration of how to prep and paint engine blocks.

    It's amazing how much better it flows out using a brush. It also lasts longer.👍

    I like seeing the brushes come out. not every paint job needs a spray rig. ^~^ just ask anyone whose restored a tractor.

      I was in Ag mechanics in high school and I brush painted an Allis Chalmers engine. The right paint will flow off a brush and level to a sprayed on look.

    Awesome, my first car was a 66’ mustang with a 289. Very good engine😊

    Glad I saw this post. I just tested out Eastwood Hemi orange on my build. I’m use to spraying the paint. But, I used a brush this go around. Glad I saw you mix the catalyst with the paint, and still brush it on. I was curious about the pot life. I know see you can brush it on even mixed with the Catalyst

    Great paint. I had a '67 Ranchero that had the 289 in it.

    You went to all the trouble of what looks like a complete rebuild, and it looks like you used mild steel welsh plugs, or were they stainless?

    Question, how do you guys prep it for paint? Sandblasting to clean it? And after painting it, does it needs any sort od clean on top of paint? Thanks you guys video help me get some ideas on how to do mine!

    That paint is coming off after a year of running it From cold to hot back to cold. There's steps to keeping your engine from peeling. They didn't show the steps, My 302 block which feature 289 HIPO heads has been painted since April of 1989 it's 2024 and there's know peeling that's longer then 30 years.

    Does the brushed on paint last longer than sprayed on and do better with heat, oil, etc ?

  • @mikerammelt2420

    You put the Welsh plugs in after you paint the block.

    Technically that's not the right color, 66 was darker.

      ​@bigloads3600 hundreds of thousands of people care. If your going thru all the time to RESTORE something why fuck it up and make it worthless with the wrong color....

      @bigloads3600 I mean if you eat to loss a fee grand if not more on a sale.over paint that's on you. People pay BIG bucks for numbers matching PROPER restorations. Been in business more then 12 years now myself.
