Dupli-Color Engine Paint with CERAMIC Alpine Green, 12 oz — High-Heat, Glossy Engine Enamel

Dupli-Color Engine Paint with CERAMIC in Alpine Green is a high-temperature engine enamel engineered to protect and brighten under-hood components while resisting heat up to 500°F.

Built for restorations, race cars, and everyday engines, this 12 oz aerosol combines ceramic-enhanced resins with a glossy finish that stands up to oil, coolant, and frequent temperature cycling. The formula is developed to reduce heat transfer and maintain color and sheen where conventional paints would dull, bubble, or peel. Easy to apply and formulated specifically for automotive use, it offers a professional-looking finish without specialized equipment.

How does this engine paint hold up to high temperatures?

The ceramic-enriched resins are formulated to resist intermittent temperatures up to 500°F, helping the finish endure under-hood heat spikes. That thermal stability lowers the chance of blistering and keeps the paint intact through repeated heating and cooling cycles.

• Ceramic resins engineered for heat resistance up to 500°F intermittent.
• Formulation minimizes blistering, flaking, cracking, and peeling.
• Maintains gloss and color after extended exposure to engine temperatures.

Will this paint resist oil, grease, and automotive fluids?

Yes — the enamel is formulated to withstand contact with common automotive fluids so it won't easily degrade when exposed to oil or coolant. This resilience helps preserve the finish and reduces maintenance or early touch-ups around leak-prone areas.

• Chemically resistant to oil, grease, and other under-hood fluids.
• Durable surface reduces staining and breakdown from fluid exposure.
• Suitable for valve covers, intake manifolds, and visible engine parts.

How easy is it to apply Dupli-Color Engine Paint?

Application is straightforward for DIYers and pros alike: the 12 oz aerosol features an EZ Touch conical nozzle for more precise control and smoother coverage. Proper surface prep—cleaning, degreasing, and scuffing—yields the best adhesion and a long-lasting finish.

• EZ Touch conical nozzle for controlled, even spray patterns.
• Aerosol format requires no brush or separate equipment for small projects.
• Works best after degreasing and light abrasion for optimal adhesion.

What kind of finish and durability can I expect?

The enamel produces a high-gloss appearance that resists dulling under heat and fluid exposure, giving engine bays a restored, showroom-quality look. Its toughness reduces the chance of mechanical damage and long-term wear in demanding environments.

• High-gloss finish retains sheen through repeated heat cycles.
• Durable film resists chipping and surface damage from engine vibration.
• Ideal for vehicles used in racing, restoration, or daily driving.

Who is this for: Enthusiasts restoring classic cars, weekend mechanics refreshing visible engine parts, and racers seeking a heat-tolerant, glossy finish will benefit from Dupli-Color Engine Paint with CERAMIC in Alpine Green. It’s a practical choice when you need a resilient, professional-looking enamel for under-hood applications without investing in specialty coatings or oven curing.
