Paint advice needed

Hi all,

I'm getting on with the Triumph restoration well - next bit is the stuff in the engine bay that is visible - things like the master cylinder brackets and the back of the headlights. These need to be painted satin black. Up to now, for other bits, not on show, I've used a self etching black, which is great, but ultra fast drying and quite thick, and I can't get it to spray at all (I've got a decent HVLP gun and good compressor).

Can anyone suggest a good paint for the job - I guess the best thing will be a 2 pack etch primer first, which I've got....

Thanks

Chris

PS - I did ask the triumph people, but got no good answers at all!!
