I'm considering painting (or at the very least polishing and coating with Sharkhide) my T56 transmission/bellhousing and IRS Diff housing. I know there are a few that have done this. I'm looking for your experience and guidance:


What paint/process did you use?
Was it worth the effort?
How has yours held up after driving the car?
Did you need to do any additional touch-up or maintenance later?


My diff is in the car now (and as some can imagine) I'd prefer to paint it where it sits. The trans & bellhousing is still boxed up so plenty of flexibility there.


Pics would be great. Thanks in advance.
