Description
Engine Grey, Series Land Rovers. Used by Land Rover for the 2 litre diesel engines until 1960. It was also used on other Rover and Land Rover engines during this time. This Engine Grey paint was matched against an untouched original 2 litre Diesel engine and associated parts, and corroborated by a Series 2 Club member for accuracy at the time of the final colour decision, confirmed by a professional restorer.

Additional information of interest
- Spray application. All of our Enamels will need to be diluted by around 5-10% using Paintman Coach Enamel Thinners, thus ensuring the highest quality finish and maintaining correct drying times.
- Surface Preparation. Prior to painting ensure all surfaces are clean and dry to remove any contaminants. We recommend using our Surface cleaner 2800 for painted surfaces or our Surface Cleaner 2802 for bare metal. Surfaces should be keyed at each layer to maintain adhesion. Just prior to painting, wipe the surface with a Tack Rag to remove dust and other loose contaminants.
