Re: question about sanding valve cover
use 300-400 grit first... then 600 grit.. then 1000 grit should smooth it.. or you can use a smooth filer at first and file the letters because that wrinkle paint is really thick.. then 400 grit, 600 grit, and finally 1000 grit but its not necessary.. then you can top it off by using mothers aluminum polish wax.. it worked for me..
