Griots Garage has a product in the catalog that you paint on cast iron that makes it look like it has been sand blasted. Has anyone tried this product?

Ian, I suggest checking out Tamir's DeLorean site. http://entermyworld.com I don't know the exact link to the area in his site, but he describes how he detailed the underside of his car to look better than new. As I remember, I think he painted the cast aluminum parts (oil pan & tranny) with something like Rustoleum's quick dry silver. SNIPPED Although I haven't (wouldn't bother) trying it on parts that take a lot of heat such as exhaust manifolds.
