I don't have a sandblaster but do you think jasco would work to strip the paint off the old VC? can i just use spray paint? would that work?

also what are other little things i could paint myself and such to make the engine bay or interrior a little more spice


what kinda paint do i use on the VC?

im sure someone has painted there VCs here....

 

There is this stuff at the autoparts store called airplane stripper.
Works awesome.

May want to use a high temp paint.
Maybe you could get away with normal paint, but it gets a little warm.
I have not used a regular paint.

 

how will do i have to wait until i can put it back on my car? like do i have to let it sit over night or can i finish it all in a days work?

 

I have a motor out of the car, but I'm sure if you do light coats it'd dry in a day. Give yourself sometime, so you can take your time.

 

i used a basecoat/ clear cot...cant go wrong...as long as it is really clean forehand...i used aircraft remover...sanded with a 320 grit...then 400...then used high temp can primer...then wetsanded smoot...then basecoated....cleared...and baked at low temp for about an hr...
