Does anyone know of a place that sells orange engine paint that is not
in an aerosol can. I would like to touchup my engine by either hand
painting or use an air brush. Tried the local auto paint store and they
only stock the rattle cans.

Or tip the can upside down and spray all the propellent out of the can and when all the pressure is out of it,carefully drill or punch a hole in it and drain all the paint out,just make SURE you have all the pressure out,you'll have all the paint you need
Make sure you shake the can good B4 you start the processRon 78 38428.3021296296

You can also use a piece of paper, cut a small hole the size of the touch up spot, and spray through the hole to do just a small spot.

POR-15 makes a Chevy Moly Orange engine paint, in a pint or quart can, that has about the highest % of solids I have ever seen.
Most of the Auto parts stores / speed shops in NJ carry the POR-15 line, although I had to order the can I bought. POR-15 advertises direct sales in Hemmings, also.
