What do you like?

Talkin rattlecans here but tell us what you use!

Plasticoat is my fav so far..
 
Seymour MRO makes some great stuff. Their "Omaha Orange" is a perfect match for the Race Hemi Orange. Bob Mazzolini actually turned me and my dad onto it, great stuff.
Other than that its the Mopar Restoration paint a Duplicolor here
 
I've used Dupli-color's Engine Enamel with Ceramic (which they claim can withstand up to 500 degrees) and I've been very pleased with how the can sprays and the paint's durability. Remember to thoroughly clean the engine and use their engine primer (DE 1612) and you're good to go.
 
I used POR-15 applied with a spray gun on my 440. I'm disappointed with how the paint has turned different shades due to variations in temperature on different parts of the engine. Next time it's rattle can black.
 
I've used the "Duplicolor w/Ceramic" it stays looking nice year after year, and touches up easily.
 
I like duplicolor as well... as long as its sprayed on a clean surface it lasts a while.... anyone ever use the their header paint?
