I figured since it wasn't being used I'd try it on
Re: 75 Bug Project
Not to be a critic, but in the picture it looks like you painted the CV Boot? If you did,,,your planning on changing those right? and if you didn't and it just appears that way \ then disregard this post...Just sayin'

Re: 75 Bug Project
My thought... paint on a flexible petroleum based product makes them stiff dry and causes them to crack.
Did I guess correctly?

Re: 75 Bug Project
SMUG got it right on the head. No Paint, No Carb Cleaner, Brake Cleaner, and even engine oil will cause premature Boot failure.
