Hi

I have some scratches/grooves in my alternator cover..

Can I use some plastic padding/bondo to fill out the scratches, and then paint it with normal spray can paint ?
Or will it just flake off from the heat of the oil/engine ?


(you cant realy see the damage clearly on this pic)

 

use engine enamel paint, its heat resistant and available in an aluminum color that will look stock

 

Thanks, ill find some high temp enamel paint.

 

oh and for filling the scratches, use jb-weld like bondo, fill them in and then sand it down after it dries
