If my math is right, you're losing money...
Explain to me your process on painting valve covers...

Re: Need Motor Parts Painted I Can Do It
i then sand the valve cover down first with 180 grit, then with 40grit
i take an air blower and blow all the dust and flakes off
i then spray about 3 coats of primer
let that dry for about 45min-1hr
then i paint about 4-6 coats of the paint of your choosing
allow it to dry for about an hour and a half to 2hrs
then wrap up the part and bring it back to you

Re: Need Motor Parts Painted I Can Do It
I can paint my own parts lol. who knows he might do a good job, and besides most people are clueless to doing anything themselves. so if he's got a lil hustle making money painting parts and priming some shit box, more power to him.
he might be the dope status, hellaflush, trendy painter dude lol
