Lol!
That looks great. CSX-T?
I'm thinking I'll paint a Shlby valve cover for the CSX T. And an intake manifold.Originally Posted by Pat
So then I'll probably pull the head and do some more porting on it too...
Some day it'll be done.
VHT makes good stuff. Only wish they offered stuff in sprayable quantities.

looks good. Any important prep you did?
follow directions on vht can
oh and don't lean on the valve cover until it has a few heat cycles or a week or so to cure compleately
uncured and leaning on it can cause the paint skin to slip n slide on the part you painted
the paint might not rip or split but a definate slide or streach line will show without great effort
Clean and degrease.
Strip the old paint off.
Prep the raised letters and ribs (brushed or polished)
Two coats of paint and put it under a heat lamp for 15 minutes.
The heat brings out the wrinkles and cures the paint.
The new cans of VHT wrinkle state the paint will wrinkle without heat. I tried it on a piece of scrap, but is did not wrinkle much.
Heat is the way to go.
did you paint it with 2 coats , each applied holding the can 90* to the other coat?
it's the different angle that causes the wrinkle "grain"effect
to thin or not useing the two different spray directions will give little or no wrinkle effect
Ive found the hard way that it doesnt work worth a crap without heat. Cost me a couple cans before i gave up and waited til summer.
Dont push the red button.You hear me?
Yes I like the vht wrinkle spray can. I did a valve cover a couple years ago in black with it and used my ex's hairdryer on it to get more of a wrinkle finish and cure faster. Turned out better than what I thought it would.

I used the red on my TIII intake and valve covers, used an old BBQ to cure them.
Might have to change to blue, hmmmmmm.
