Does anyone know if dupli-color engine enamel with ceramic paint will hold up real good on my plastic engine cover?

Could someone answer this? Also would i need to spray primer or do you think it would hold up on its own?

Before I removed my engine cover I just painted with Dupli color

I did fine except where two hoses ran over the corner, it always had lack spots there from the hoses

If you run hot maybe a High heat paint

Someone mentioned if anyone has found a way to conceal the wiring? This is it, it's still super rough but it's getting there.
