The Cummins Beige Engine Paint 12oz is a ceramic-resin engine enamel from DUPLI-COLOR/KRYLON, sold under MPN DE1638. It lays down a factory-matched beige that buyers use to restore Cummins diesel blocks, valve covers, and accessory brackets on Dodge Ram trucks and industrial powerplants. The 12oz aerosol can sprays directly onto cleaned cast iron and steel, and the ceramic-fortified formula stands up to the oil, fuel, and heat cycling that comes with diesel service. If you are matching an original engine color during a rebuild or freshening up a tired block, this is the shade that gets the job done right.
DUPLI-COLOR/KRYLON builds this enamel with a ceramic resin that holds color and gloss under high under-hood temperatures and resists the chemical attack from spilled oil, gasoline, and brake fluid. The aerosol delivers an even coat over engine castings without runs when applied in light passes, and it bonds to bare metal as well as previously painted surfaces that have been cleaned and scuffed. Surface prep drives the final result, so degrease and remove old loose paint first. For tougher residue, our gasket remover and a quality cleaner clear the way. When you need a different shade for a contrasting valve cover or accessory, the same engine enamel line covers a wide range of OEM colors.
Reach for the Cummins beige paint when you are returning a 5.9L or 6.7L Cummins to its correct factory appearance, or color-coding a swap so the block reads authentic. It works equally well on intake horns, brackets, and bell housings that take heat and grime. For a complete refresh, pair it with a primer and a clear topcoat from the same family. Browse the full paints and finishing selection for matching engine enamels, or check our clear engine paint to seal the finished color and add a layer of protection over the beige.
It is a factory-matched engine enamel for restoring and refreshing Cummins diesel engine blocks, valve covers, and accessory brackets. Owners of Dodge Ram trucks running 5.9L and 6.7L Cummins engines use it to return components to their correct OEM beige appearance during rebuilds and detail work.
Yes. This DUPLI-COLOR/KRYLON enamel is built with a ceramic resin that resists high under-hood temperatures and shrugs off oil, gasoline, and harsh chemical spills, which makes it suited to the heat cycling and grime of diesel engine service.
Degrease the surface thoroughly, remove any loose or flaking old paint, and scuff glossy areas so the enamel can grip. Wipe clean and let dry before spraying. Adhesion depends on a clean, oil-free surface, so do not skip the cleaning step.
A single 12oz aerosol can typically covers a full engine block and basic accessory components for a standard refresh, depending on the number of coats and how much overspray you allow. For a complete dual-tone job or a large industrial powerplant, plan on a second can.
For bare metal or maximum durability, a compatible engine primer improves adhesion and a clear engine topcoat adds gloss and chemical protection. For touch-ups over existing factory finish, you can often apply the enamel directly to a cleaned, scuffed surface.
