Got Engine Paint on Cam Bearing
I painted my engine last weekend and got a little paint on one of my cam bearings. Do i need to swap out the bearing or can i still use it?

Re: Got Engine Paint on Cam Bearing
Its on the inner side of the bearing, and it has a light shade of red on the bearing. Its Hardly noticible but I dont want to take a chance.

Re: Got Engine Paint on Cam Bearing
When I build a motor and get a little paint where I do not want it I just use a little Brake cleaner on a rag and wipe it off..
