Item number 09-02550 is a perfect color match for early Continental post WWII engines like A65 thru C200 with a silver gold tint. Continental change to a more gold coloring with their newer engines. AP/IA

Always used Tempro, but because of supply issues I tried this. Very happy with the choice. Nice spray pattern and the nozzle doesnt clog.

Good stuff. Im using it as the base color for finishing the interior of my GlaStar. It goes on smooth, glosses nicely, dries quickly.

Good paint but this is not gold at all. It is an obvious silver.

Not the color I expected, as the other reviews have stated.

The other reviews are correct. This is silver, not Gold. I repainted some valve covers that were previously continental gold, and this is NOT that. Otherwise paint applied well. Time will tell on durability.

Q: Do you need to use primer before using the aerosol version of this product or can you apply this to bare metal?

This can be applied to bare metal, but primmer is recommended.

Q: People here seem to be confused on the color of continental gold. There have been two Continental golds over the years. The Old Continental Gold is an actual gold color (very ugly in my opinion and will make your new engine look very dated. New Continental Gold is more of a silver/slightly bronzy and is the color that TCM is sending all their new engines out with. What is being sold here is the New Continental Gold. I hope this clears up the confusion.

Thank you for providing this feedback. We will post it for other customers.

Q: can this paint be used to paint engine baffling on a cessna 150?

Yes it can be used on engines and engine parts.

Q: Is this Superflite enamel considered hazmat for shipping?

Yes, it is considered hazmat for shipping.
