So I painted my SRI intake with trim paint the other day not rezlizing that is was flammable. I used the spray paint kind and was wondering if it would be flammable if I install it into my 97 Accord SOHC engine? Only reason I painted it was b/c there were so many scuff marks on there from things falling everywhere in the basement.

 

How do you mean flammable paint?

Most enamel paints that come in aerosol spray cans have a flammable warning on them. That is to warn you that the over spray & fumes that float around the garage while painting can be flammable. That doesn't necessarily mean that the dry paint is going to burst into flames. I'm pretty sure once it's dry you should be safe to use the painted part.

 

all enamel paints are flammabe until dry =P

 

thanks guys! I know it's wierd but it was a spur of the moment thing. I'll install it tomorroww.
