well ALMOST DONE....

i finaly ditched the idea for a smooth black valve cover... i just COULDNT get the black to lay down smoothly enough.... SO decided to WRINKLE it

im just gonna wait for the wrinkle paint to dry over night then ill start to clear coat it. my fingers are hurting from picking off the paint off the lettering.LOL










so now im just gonna let it dry over night.... then start clear coating it and then slap on the new seals and stuff and swap it on my civic to ditch the stock valve cover...
im also gonna paint the strut brace and CAI tube as well... i might even do a few of the tanks under the hood....
and man i need to turn off that date crap on my camera.LOL

 

looks really good so far, man.. two thumbs up from me.

EDIT: apparently, I can't spell "thumbs" lol

 

define crinking for me.

 

wow looks great so far addiction

 

i love wrinkle coat vc's, i was thinking of doing mine if i ever do it again.

 

ya the high temp black paint just WOULD NOT lay down smooth! i tried 3times and i ALWAYS had this one spot that looked oversprayed and wasnt even and well IM TIRED of paint striping the dam thing! and its been siting on the shelf for about a month or so.....
so last time i was at autozone i desided to try some wrinkle paint over my old hightemp paint... i thought it was gonna look crapy at first.... it takes ruffly 15mins or so for the paint to wrinkle.LOL i didnt know that.LOL i was starting to get pissed like WTF this aint wrinkle paint. hahahhaha

 

if you throw it in the oven for a little bit, it wrinkles faster... I believe the longer it's in the oven/hotter the oven is, the bigger the wrinkles are, but I could have it switched around.

 

well its like about 95degrees out and suny sky... LMFAO so im preaty sure it was warm enough

 

it look good ur such an perfectionist

 

Looking great
