Re: Powder results

Picture of another valve cover I just did. I did it in Marblehead Silver at first. It had sort of a cement type texture to it. Kinda cool, but I wanted to play some more. So here is the end result. The letters are still the marblehead silver, but the rest is Wrinkle Black.

This will also be my test cover. It was cracked right in the corner by the oil cap where these things always crack. I have a metal puddy specifically made for repairing Aluminum, and is commonly used by powdercoaters because it holds powder very well, and supposidely can be polished to a shine as well. So anyway I guess I'll see how it holds.
