Re: new valve cover (HondaFerris)

kinda looks like the one I recently painted.....

used a gold/gold-flake base coat then semi gloss white ontop of that. I like your pearl white vc better though

Which paint did you use?

thanks man im glad you like it!
i used duplicolor metalic gold base coat (same as spark plug cover) then hit it with some duplicolor gloss white. then the key to its "pearly" finish is the duplicolor clear effex
