Painting inside motor area specially inner hood area


I just finished stripping out my motor and inner fender areas
I think fender wells sound be gloss black
radiator support - Gloss Black
Fire wall colour of car
But the hood was painted colour of car but when i striped
it down it seems to originally been gloss black
does this seem correct ??
Thanks

Possibly it could have been Satin Black and not Gloss Black.

I would agree with the suggestion of satin (semi gloss) for the inners and rad support.

I believe my 65 was white under the hood from new.

Firewall certainly body colour.

My '64 Parisienne is Lagoon Aqua under the hood and on the firewall.
Black semi-gloss for fenders/rad.

My car had satin black inners & rad support,body color firewall. Unfortunately my firewall was very faded and scratched up so I just did it satin as well.

Hi guys,

Is there a specific satin or semi-gloss black that you suggest ?

Is this as simple as a spray-bomb from Canadian Tire ?

I'm interested because I want to repaint my front bumper support frame
while the chrome is off getting re-done.

Regards,

Scott

WHAT I FOUND ON MY '64 LAURENTIAN:
INNER FENDERS - SATIN BLACK
RAD. SUPPORT - SATIN BLACK
RADIATOR - GLOSS BLACK
UNDERSIDE OF HOOD - SATIN BLACK WITH ALOT OF BODY COLOR OVERSPRAY

MY CAR HAD BEEN RE-PAINTED ONCE WHEN STILL VERY NEW (LESS THAN ONE YEAR OLD) SO FOR THE UNDERSIDE OF THE HOOD I'M NOT SURE IF ALL THE OVER-SPRAY WAS FACTORY OR NOT. INSIDE THE DOORS AND TRUNK ARE FACTORY PAINT. I'M NOT SURE IF THEY WOULD HAVE LIFTED THE HOOD FOR THE RE-PAINT. I BELEIVE THOUGH THE UNDERSIDE HOOD SHOULD BE SATIN BLACK WITH ALOT OF FACTORY COLOR PAINT OVERSPRAY BUT I CAN'T SAY FOR CERTAIN.

i used por-15 semi gloss in the engine compartment, frame and under car. the thing is its not uv protected,but i think under hood and under car does not get much sun so i used it. and it looks right.

I use MarHyde Satin black paint. Apply with spray gun. Better paint,better coverage, higher build. In the long run cheaper than rattle cans.

I use Allis- Chalmers machinery paint, spray gun applied, comes out a "nice" satin finish very close to what it should be, & you don't need a "primer" Good to go over rust as well. I think John- Deere has one similar!!  I mix the Allis with Lac. thiners almost 50/50  Works for me!!!!

Eastwood has a underhood black in  a 10-20 % semi gloss that they say is the correct shade but would be more expesive than other brands. Available in Aerosol  and quart cans.

GM did have a satin black or chassis black paint available in gallon cans a few years back, Not sure if still available. Catapiller Med. Gloss Black is decent paint as well, comes in spray bomb, qt. or gal. reasonable $$$
