So I want to paint my valve cover...

Thanks for the input!

Valve cover looks REAL nice, just makes me want to do it my self even more.

Might have to stop by Napa tomorrow and pick up the 1200 degree F semi-gloss black paint. Then hit it with the 500 degree F clear paint.

I used duplicolor for the primer and the paint. The primer is 1200F and the paint is 500F

I checked what I used for paint stripper and it is aircraft paint/primer remover. It worked really good exept the stuff is bad shit! use gloves(throw them away after use) and I used a plastic bondo putty applicator (so I could throw it away). I highly recomend it but be warned don't get it on your skin Burns like shit! and smells bad. However it will get inbetween the lettering which is hard to do if you are stripping the paint by hand.
