Re: Need Motor Parts Painted I Can Do It
i tape off the plug wire holes, the air plug hole, and the oil cap hole,
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

Then again, I guess some people like 40 grit sanding scratches in their aluminum valve cover... WOOOOOOOOO textured valve covers!
Lets see some pics of yours bro... If you're lucky enough I'll go out and get pics of the red wrinkle finish one I did...

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

Re: Need Motor Parts Painted I Can Do It
no no, the reason i use such rough grit is because it helps the paint stick alot better. and im usually using 80grit but i used 40grit on my cover because its what i already had

Re: Need Motor Parts Painted I Can Do It
As far as I know I still know how to do body work, boss... And you DO NOT use 40 grit or even 80 grit on a valve cover... If you'd like I can get one of our resident paint guys in here and shut you up...
DUUUUUAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAANEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!! !
Why not now bro? I got pics of most of the work I've ever done on my PB... Go look if you think I don't know what I'm talkin about...
