No that is Nice, just got all my brand new 12 volt bits to fit today but will have to wait untill paint comes Monday before I can fit them, hope I can get a nice finish like that with my Brush
 
Put a little some of it on today, just a very thin coat but looks like its gonna turn out decent with a couple of coats

^^ this one. Looking at the condition of the rest of the engine that has not been painted I would suggest it is not clean enough to take the paint properly. Needs to be fully degreased and clean and anywhere accessible give a quick rub over with some sandpaper to give it a key.
