Car and Automotive Paint - Rust Preventers, Engine Paint, Primers, Clear Coats and more

Car paint doesn’t just make things look pretty, it’s a critical layer of protection against rust, stains, and corrosion. From automotive paint and high temp coatings, to plastic and leather dyes, Summit Racing carries paints for a wide range of applications. And you’ll find materials for every stage in the automotive paint process, including primer, base coats, and top coats/clear coats.

But paint jobs aren’t just for automotive applications either. Need a high temperature coating for an outdoor grill? Want to touch-up a child’s toy and need specialty plastic paint? Summit Racing’s got you covered, pun intended, for a wide range of paint-related projects around the home.

As mentioned before, paint (automotive or otherwise) provides a critical barrier of protection against the elements, including chemicals. That could mean simply hitting lawn furniture with a few coats of enamel to prevent rust. Or it could mean applying professional quality automotive paint or rust inhibitor inside an engine bay to protect the underlying sheetmetal from oil, grease, or high temperatures.

Epoxy, enamels, urethanes, and more—Summit Racing is your go-to source for every automotive paint need (and plenty of around-the-house paint jobs too). Here are some of the most popular paint categories at SummitRacing.com.

• Spray Paint. Whether it’s for a car or truck, automotive or otherwise, Summit Racing has a huge assortment of spray paint to help you finish your project. From primers to clear coats, find what you need in our spray paint section.

You’ll also find plenty of automotive clear coat paint in this category too. See all the paint colors available now in our automotive paint section.

• Primer. Choosing the right automotive primer is essential for a lasting paint job. And it’s easy to find what you need in our Primer section, because it includes high build primer, 2K primer, self-etching primer, urethane primer, and more. It doesn’t matter if you’re applying primer with a spray gun or spray can, get it here.

• Single Stage Top Coat. A quality top coat helps complete your single stage automotive paint job. And, since your top coat provides both color and protection in a single stage system, selecting the right one ensures you get the finish you want. See your options now in the single stage top coat section.

• Base Coat. In a two stage paint system, the base coat provides color depth and critical adhesion to your primer. You then apply your clear coat (or top coat) to the base coat to create a lasting finish. You’ve got a lot of base coat options too—start shopping now to see them all.

• Brush Application. You don’t need a fancy spray gun for a lot of paints. Take thick rust inhibitor coatings or high temp engine or brake caliper paint for instance—they often simply brush on. Or, if you’re into hot rod pinstriping, you’ll find the paint you need to add a slick custom touch right here.

• High Temp Paint. From engine to exhaust, blocks to brakes, your vehicle generates a lot of heat. These specialty high heat paint coatings can help keep heat where it belongs, while giving your car or truck some slick custom accents.
