Re: What IS Jake up to? (BuBB RuBB)
Here is the valve cover with aircraft coating remover on it. I did 3 coat and cleans using the tools below.
Here is the cleaned product. Its not 'perfect' but good enought for a respray. I mainly used the scrub brush, and tooth brush...I did a little bit with the wire thingy, and then cleaned it with the scrub brush and a bucket of soapy water.
Here is the finished product. The paint in the first picture was bought so that Milwaukee paint could custom me some hightemp stuff for the valve cover.
Edit: I used a 3 ring binder seperator and cut it in half in a random pattern. I then flipped one side over so they didnt fit together then set that on the cover to make the camo pattern.
More to come???

Sorry to say, but I think that camo CRX is ugly - but to the guy who drives it, if ya dig it then I can't say ****. If the pattern were tighter it would look cool though!
Good luck with the paint Jake.
