Re: Painted Block (dEF juNKie)
Damn, it looks awesome. How did you do that? Did anyone help you do it? If they did... they're awesome too. I'm jealous.
Will you paint my block??
With a few rare (very rare) exceptions, anything on eBay is crap unless it's OEM.

Re: Painted Block (MyVtec8u)
CAn anyone offer tips for what to do to cover up all the areas of the block you don't want painted? I swear I'll do it and miss an important opening somewhere...

Well.... how do you go about taping the desk without putting the tape over the edges so that you don't miss painting the block surface up to the deck itself?
Did that make any sense?

when i painted my block i taped the block deck with clear packaging tape along where the threads to the crank. i didnt spray paint my block i used a paint brush. and it works fine.
