my friend plans to repaint his spark plug cover because it is red. i'm wondering if paint stripper would eat through the plastic spark plug cover? we sprayed the stripper on a plastic spoon and it ate through it. would it damage the spark plug cover?

 

More than likely it will...just sand it down and paint it with whatever color you want.

 

alright thanks for the advice

 

Oh and if you're going from a dark original color and want to go with a light color be sure to use a light primer (gray or white) then a couple coats of the color you want. If you want it shiny use some clearcoat

 

it will...sand it

 

they actually sell bumper paint stripper. its made to strip paint off plastics

I just stripped a spark plug cover on Thursday, it was fine.
