Valve cover paint
Im going to be painting my valve cover pink ( hell yea baby ) but unsure if a normal spray paint can of pink is going to work, I heard some people mention of a hi-temp pink but after searching the net for about an hours i couldnt find anything.
How would a normal paint for metal do on the valve cover? would it start to chipped because of the heat? Does anyone know of any pink color that is hi-temp?
This is basically what i wanted
*picture is from amy post, i hope she dont mind *

Re: Valve cover paint (StolenTeg)
i think you should be ok for a while, if you do 1-2 thin coats of primer 1-2 thin coats of pink and then 1-2 medium coats of Clear
it might not last as long as the High-temp stuff, so you might need to redo it every 2-3 years, might last forever, but it should last for a while
