Default Question about painting valve-cover...YES I SEARCHED!!!!!!!

Yes i searched about this, and i know HOW to paint the valve-cover...but do you have to use high temp paint? Like if i use a regular paint will it flake off or anything? I want to use some kind of krinkle paint so it gives it the OEM look but does it have to be high temp...Thanks for the help in advance...

WOW!! Are there two different types of wrinkle paint though, is there a high-temp one, or is there only one kind?

hmmm... you seem to be really stupid
O.K.
so we are going to assume there are 5 types of krinkle paint, you need to get the high temp one.

O.K.
so now we are going to assume there are 14 types of krinkle paint, you need to get the highest temp one.

O.K.
so after that can we assume that no matter how many types of krinkle paint there are the correct one is the high temp.

assuming your paint searching ability is just as good as your topic searching ability you should beable to find 1.

I've painted two with standard automotive paint (basecoat and clear) and had no problems with either.
