What reasons? There's an active EAA chapter at the airport I soar from, if I can get a small amount of primer, can I just apply it with a brush, or would that make it so thick that it would crack when flexing the hose to get it on?
Good thing you were specific about a cleaning agent -- I probably would have just used Dawn and water.
Will the layer of paint help hold in some heat and reduce the effectiveness of my engine braking? 8^)
