Default Valve cover refresh before and after.


Before, paint peeling.

A little more gloss than I had originally planned. Happy with the results. Gave me a chance to check retainers, adjust valves, and replaces seals on valve cover.

Looks nice! As long as you did not sandblast or use any particles to strip the old paint.

I read that on here. I used two cans of Methylene Chloride paint stripper, then the inside was masked, hand sanded outside to give a profile to help adhere the powder coat, then at the end washed the hell out of it just in case. No blast media used.
