Default Wrinkle Paint
Like the title says, i want to paint my valve covers red.
Just wanted to know if anyone has done this and could recommend something.
I did a small search and really didnt come up with anything.

I used it once and had to redo my cover after the first attempt. I found that extremely light coats gave me a nicer wrinkle.

I have this, but in black. It's held up pretty nicely.
