Just got a brand new Desert Cooler radiator from Classic parts. (very nice) yahoo

My question is........

There is a small paint spot chipped off near the fill spout. I want to repaint the tank, so what is the prep? and (because of the heat) what paint should I use?

Any advice would be appreciated! thumbs_up

Is the radiator copper or aluminum? Eastwood makes a radiator paint . Available in a gloss also.
