Cam cover cut down! Anyone have any tips for painting a polished cover while its installed? Might not want the polished look   | ||
| V74 |
How did you cut it?I have a hacksaw,and how long did it take to cut? | ||

Tape and an old blanke twill do the tric to cover everything else up. Sand paper or scotch briite pads to roughen it u pa bit. Degrease the part. Black wrinkle spray and spray away. Multiple layers and cross directional with each layer. Best result however is to take the part loose, IMHO. (Message edited by Rjn on November 18, 2014) | ||

Ken, I've done them three different ways. Polished, powder coated and wrinkle painted. All three look great depending on the rest of the motor. Yours is much like the S1 I built a while ago. I put a 02 X1 motor in it with the black cylinders. The wrinkle on the cam cover looked great! My M2 is powder coated, I did the polish for someone else, can't even remember who it was now. Long time ago. Polishing it wasn't too bad since it was off the motor. Brad | ||
