I agree... the paint looks like it didnt take well.... dont use brake cleaner around it or its going to wash right off... what did you use to clean it before you painted?

cleaned the entire engine with simple green and let it dry for a hour. then started painting. the paint looks like that because it wasnt done drying. i had just finished it.
