The users manual for my *1997* E36 mentions that E10 is fine and approved.

Swapping out the intake manifold on my DD 328i for the OBDI version, which flows more air. Performance!

I have one. They’re not that hard to find. It took us a week to find, negotiate, drive out and pick up the car. And we even just *had* to get a white one, because that’s what my wife wanted.

Paint sealer is a product meant to go over factory finishes or otherwise old paint to chemically separate it from the new paint. It wouldn’t really do anything in this case, as it’s not chemically bonded to the sheet metal and it’s not meant to be a bare metal primer. What you want in this case is to apply 1-2 coats…

I actually did this with my E36 M3.
