According to RS Paints, the paint they supply is not a high temperature paint. They say that the engine would not have been painted with a high temperature paint at the factory, which is why it tends to peel. The only suggestion they had was to use etch primer, 2-3 very light coats (leaving each coat to fully dry) and 2-3 coats of lacquer. Trouble is, if Yamaha cant get the paint to stay on what chance do I have?
I will probably stick with the Simoniz Engine paint and just live with the colour difference.
