I sprayed mine with it, but I havent dropped the motor in it yet. If I remember correctly, I scuffed it pretty good before I coated it since I had it stripped down to bare metal.

thanks CDJr, I lost my nerve to shot it. I shot it with epoxy primer instead.

Well, for future reference, remember that that stuff will stick to rougher surfaces for sure...the rougher the better. From my experiences with it, the more you prep and/or clean a surface prior to coating it, the less it will adhere. I know that sounds bass-ackwards, but thats the conclusion I came to after experimenting with it. For peace of mind, Id suggest you find some scrap steel thats rusting/corroding/flaking in varying degrees, and experiment with it. I did this using a foam brush to slop it on stuff using whatever was leftover in my paint gun, just to see whatd happen lol.
