Removed half a ton of scrap metal...and a few saleable extras....from the engine bay of my 110. Applied liberal coats of Hammmerite to the various parts already removed and cleaned. Any suggestions as to best paint to use for underside of the bonnet?

I changed the park switch as I had lost intermitent on my wipers. As it was parking correctly I wasn't sure if it was the park switch or wiper stalk. Looks like it's the stalk then.:doh:
