SO, I am still a little uncertain about what to do with the underneath side of the hood. What's everyone doing to paint the underneath side of the hood? Does rustoleum or brightside hold up well to the heat of the engine? Should I just use the high heat black engine paint or can the rustoleum or brightside handle the heat of the engine compartment?

When 69charger originally started talking about the Rustoleum method, he specifically mentioned the high heat areas on his VW Beetle (engine compartment and deck lid). He said that the paint has held up well despite the high temps of an air cooled motor. His orange Beetle was a good test case and I think that you'd probably be fine w/the underside of your hood.
