Default DP 90 LF Black Epoxy Primer for Engine Compartment?

I am getting ready to paint my engine compartment on my 66 Impala SS
Ragtop.
Not a trailer queen car but a driver during the summer with few shows
thrown in.

I have a quart of PPG DP 90 LF black epoxy primer and was wondering if
anyone had any input on using it for the engine compartment.

I am curious how glossy it is and if not very glossy, is there a way to
obtain a higher gloss using the DP 402LF catalyst or DT 870 Reducer
that I also have.

I am thinking about using it on pretty much the entire compartment
including firewall, fender wells, fan shroud and hood hinges.

All input appreciated.

Thanks,

DP 90 is not glossy It is PRIMER would be great if you have stripped the
engine compartment. Spend the extra money and do the job right. IT needs
a top coat. You can get the correct engine black from any auto paint store
for a final coat
