Painted my valve cover today, and removed my upper guide it was about to break. Anyways what do you guy's think of the paint that I selected.

 

is that like a grapite color?

anyways, it looks hella lot better than mine!

mine is half orange, and half peeling orange!

oh yeah cooked/burned oil! LOL

 

looks good man. i painted mine blue, and cleared it 4 times,

 

Interesting, looks cool. I think your lettering should be a different color though, they don't stand out very well.
My poor valve cover is still semi-pink because I've sanded most of it off but I haven't had a good chance to take it off and properly finish it.

 

NICE DUDE!! Me and you both, mine's in the Style section.

Looks like you did a really good job. I don't really care for the color when the valve cover is sitting alone, but i bet it looks AWESOME next to everything else in the engine bay.

 

Well here are before and after pics......

 

Looks a lot better man, a lot better...lol.

 

Speckle Paint?! WTF? I thought that went out back in the mid-90's when people stopped using it to paint their interiors. To be quite honest, it won't be on your valve cover for very long. You should have painted it with an automotive paint.

BTW, what header is that? DC?

 

looks all rock like

moved to "Style"

 

Oh i can answer for Vinnie!!! save him a post and up me a count! YES PAD THOSE POSTS...um no sorry burst of enegry before sleep.

Yes they are dc he made a post of them and how to install on the forums here...

Yeah its interesting all right its different but looks good under there the stock looks asssty, yes asssty what kind of paint is right its sure cool not my flavor but im a plain kinda guy hopfully it dunt run faster than that NA KA...

 

Gee thats funny used a 3 stage painting process.
Step 1 AUTOMOTIVE primer.
Step 2 Rustoleum stone accents, back of the spray can says that it can be applied up to 200 degress F.
Step 3 used an automotive clear laquer to prevent oil from seeping onto and peeling the paint.
It will last as long as need be. It will also accent my master clutch and brake cylinders. As well as the strut bar ends(not the bar)...

Hey smart *** how many headers do they make for the KA. Obviously just looking at it once you know it is a genuine (BLING BLING) DC Sports.

 

i think it looks cool, it has a concrete look to it, Ive never seen paint like that before.

 

i think it looks awesome whats the name of the paint?

 

I believe I mentioned it earlier, it is Rustoleum Stone Accents, you will find it in pretty much any home depot.

 

yo vin is there any way of making that Rustoleum Stone Accents color sort of like a red color?? maybe take the steps you did but then put a red coat on it or i dont know
