Has anyone used spray can wrinkle paint for their valve covers?

Just wondering my valve cover has a little bit of wear on it. If i strip it and paint it using the wrinkle paint how well would it turn out comparing it to stock. I tried searching but didnt find anyone else that has used it. any help would be great. thanks

Re: (2000CX)

how are you guys keeping the paint off the letters? Do you mask it before or just paint over and then sand/peel it off?

How are you prepping, sanding, and painting the valve cover? What type of layers are you doing? Do you bake it? Give some info.
