i think ill polish them all down, and that wil make the brighter colors look shinier. I can do pretty much any color dude. what do you want. i can blend powders, add metalics, textures, lots of crap.

I just sold my motor, but I had a polished one. I did it myself with a dremel tool. I started by sand blasting it to remove the paint, then started working with sand paper from 100 to 1500. Then used to dremel with a cloth wheel on it and some chrome polish compond and went to town. Turned out real good.

Really? Maybe I should do that, how long did the process take? Do you have any pics of how it looked? I dont have a sand blaster though...

if you make a clear one, ill buy that shit off you like 2 weeks ago.

polishing valve covers isnt too hard, just takes time. if you want some honduh valve covers to polish or whatever for ebay, i have a couple i started but lost interest in doing.


Broken right now x( Blah

actually, i have access to about 10 or 15 vc's. if i get them, i won't need anyone. if u want to get rid of them tho, just pm me an asking price. note, im getting these for dirt cheap.



Also, what do you mean by clear? i can put clear coats on.... i can do like this plastic/rubber coat. uh, i can order in some electric blue powder. I can get super mirror powders the SHINE hella. if you get a bright color, usually they are top coats, they cost more, and you need to put say, a chrome powder underneath..yes, i could put a chrome, black chrome, color. blue? any blue is available haha. what other colors are you guys interested in? it makes a big difference whn buying powder. if i buy it bulk, it is much cheaper.

how much would you charge to powdercoat a vc a nice dark blue and polish the numbers/letters?

well... i don't have any covers right now, but it totally depends on how much i get the covers for. if i can get one here for 40 shipped, then its like, 20 or 25 to ship it back probably. i have no clue actually. then, i will have to order this powder, i am not sure if there is any available at the moment in that color. When i get my valve covers, im going to do a spare, put it on my car and ask u what u think of the color. but anyways, vc+shipping back+powder+polishing+oven time/and the actual spraying/coating will add up really fast.

i thought that 95 or 100+sh was a good deal. and if u sent me a core i'd give u back what i paid for the cover(i'd tell u how much it was before hand)

i will clean off the covers, completely degrease them from oil/residues, sandblast and sand down the cover, put it through the wire brush. then, i'll use this hightemp tape stuff we use and cover up parts that can't get powder. Then i'll see what i can do with those letters on my cover, because i'd like them polished as well. Powdercoat is really hard, so getting it off nice and smooth may be a bitch. we'll see. what do you guys think? i can top it off with a clear coat too if u wanted.


I've never sold anything on here before, but i do buy a lot. We could list this on ebay as a specialty baseball card or something, i'd give u the item number and u could just buy it and it would be a legal contract. i have 23+ positive 100% feedback on ebay, being a seller and buyer. and am paypal verified. Although, i won't be accepting payments at the moment until i have it all lined out and covers ready to have your color baked on. If you want one in the not too far future, start saving now and let me know what color u want. remember, i have few covers. and i don't know how many i'm going to be getting. so pipe up with the color, if we all get the same color it would be cheaper. much.
