Last week when Tom told me my motor should ship this week I also asked what paint they use. I would like to get some and start painting the parts that didn't get sent in so they will match. Tom answered that it should ship this week, but didn't answer the paint question... so I emailed again yesterday. Here is how the exchange went:

Got the engine today! Woo Hoo!
Can you tell me which paint brand and color you use so I can color match the other components?

It's concept machine paint base and then we clear it

Thanks. A quick google search didn't show me where to buy it. Can you point me towards your supplier?

It is called "concept machine paint"?

Yea
So, I think the main thing that I've learned is that, while Tom is great to talk to on the phone, he and I don't communicate well via email... 'cuz I have googled and can't figure out what he is talking about... either the exact paint to buy, or the place to buy it from.
I found a "Concept Paints", but they are in Australia. http://conceptpaints.com.au, and they don't list a product called "Concept Machine Paint".
And I googled "body shop supply house" and don't see a company by that name online, or in the Horsham, PA area.
I'll call Tom in a couple of hours and see if he can give me a more specific answer on the phone. I was expecting something like "we use Eastwood Ceramic engine paint and the color is Universal Aluminum. We order it from here http://www.eastwood.com/ew-ceramic-engine-paint-qt-universal-aluminum.html"... or something like that.
Am I just being unusually dense? Can anyone else decipher Tom's message?
