Damn, that looks pretty good

 

Nice, now paint that car.

 

**** I will its hard to squeeze money from my wife and our budget when you got a little one see how could you resist.

 

i agree with painting the car.

 

but then, i couldn't resist either with the little one.

 

yah i feel you about the whole kid thing i got one and another one coming and income is a bitch enough of that though well...

would you recommened painting it red? witch exact colors did u use for the prep work and what did u do did u just spray it or did u sand it down? let me know alright nice job by the way feeling that color thanks

 

job well done...what brand of paint did you use?

 

Damn that nice! Makes me wanna get a fat gold rope necklace and slap that valvecover on it.

 

Yeah what kind of Paint? Trust me I know the whole kid thing after my Son was born the whole car budget cut down fast... But hes worth it ...

 

looks good i wanna paint my valve cover. i know what yall mean about the money thing after having a kid, i've got 2 kids and 4 year old girl and a 4 month old boy. money is tight in this household

 

haha...

i looked at the first picture and was like, WTF??

then i scrolled down....

good job

 

paint da whip

 

looks very very good!

 

So to get that color, you used 3 diff colors of paint, or? Looks very nice!

 

nice , where you get the paint. did you do any thing special to it before you painted?

 

real nice

 

Looks awesome take a pic of the cans you used so we can see what brand and type of paint it is. That would be pretty sweet to test out on some cheap rims if the valve cover looks that good.

 

thats a good look

 

The little ones cute. Nice job on the valve cover man. I dont have a kid but I have like 6 neices and nephews and I seen what they can do to you money wise. They drain money from me and their not even mine. LOL.

 

I was gonna go red.

Here is a pic of the paint


Just glass or beed blast it then I washed it really good couple of times in a hot tank at my work. I then tapped it off and started with. I think you could just blast it and clean it really good with dish soap or some thing like that.

I started with the Rust-oleum Semi gloss Protectant enamel(Anodized bronze.
Then I used the Valsar Satin copper.
Last I sprayed it with the Rust-oleum Metallic copper finish and vuala.
Smacked that bitch on.

 

looks much better than it was, was thinkin, too much silver in the bay but don't have to worry about that now.

 

looks like it turned out pretty good

 

The last one is a SWEET color... I'm just glad you didnt make it BLUE like those OBX covers....

You got some good taste.

I was wondering though, will those spray paint in particular hold up under the engine heat? I'm not expereinced with those paint so dont know... I was thinking of doing it on my own....
