How do I clean my red type r valve cover?

Is there some sweet cleaner that you guys use to keep it clean???

 

Soft to medium hand brush and a bucket of dish-soap water.

Or, simple green--but I have a nice SS header and I tend to stay away from chemicals, even though SG is somewhat mild.

 

just be careful, if the powdercoat is chipping anywhere you can chip it very easy just by touching it with your hand.

 

water, car washing soap and sponge. be very care not to chip off the paint. heres how mines turned out GL with your!!!

 

WOW, fullybuilt that vavle cover looks really nice. I hope I can get mine to come out like that.

 

I assume use the soft side of a dish sponge fullybuilt?

 

Anyone try to touch up their chips? I took mine to get the brake fluid flushed and they got a drip on the cover. I wanted to touch it up.

 

I use regular soap and water then use armorall vinyl protectant.

 

yes SIR...i bought a car washing sponge from WALMART for $2.99..haha..it ROLLBACK TIME!!

 

Dope pic!

 

In for more pictures

 

I'm going to try this when I get off work tonight.
I will take before and after pics.

 

I had chips in mine, and decided to simply buy a new one. It was pretty cheap from my acura dealer and now it looks brandy-new.

Nice picture. New background for my iPhone!

 

thanks and yes i seen itr valve covers shipped for $185, not bad for OEM

 

I used a pretty crazy engine degreaser and a dish sponge. I didnt let the stuff sit on very long just for a bit then a good scrub and rinse. It looks great for being factory from 98, transportation thousands of miles and been in and out of a car 3 times. The only flaw is a little black mark thats like grease that I cant seem to get out.
