Had all engine ali vapour blasted.....now what???

Hi had inlet manifold and all other engine parts vapour blasted and it all looks like new!! iv seen people paint with ie eastwood ali blast, could you please give me some info weather to leave or paint etc? thanks

Just leave as is, painted Ali always looks odd

What about a clear coat to keep it looking nice.

Can this be done with the engine still in the car or is it a strip down job?

WD40 keeps it looking fresh and stops it tarnishing

Thanks for the input guys, what about gearbox? crazy quiffs say they powder coat there's as in one lump with seals etc still in?

I wouldn't think you could powder coat the gearbox fully assembled, it would melt the seals
