Shiny Valve Head Cover Paint

[eljoekickass]

I bought the high heat enamel paint to paint my valve head but it looks dull. I noticed this guy below has shiny paint. What paint is this?

[Venom_5]

Engine Enamel and High Heat make both dull and metallic paints ... however alot of people add a clear coat to make it somewhat glossy

[bigbird]

they do make special engine paints. i had them on my old car, cant remember the name but i got it fron summitracing.com

uh why have i not heard of this guy? i dont think he's part of the 5S-FTE sticky either.... unless im retarded [which is always a possibility ]

[eljoekickass]

I wouldn't say retarded. The link is in the 5s-FTE sticky but its pretty much hidden. There's so many friggin words in that sticky, you have to search for it.

Comes in 500 degree and 1200 degree. 500 is more then plenty for a valve cover.


P.S. Thats meisners camry. You noobs wouldn't know, but he's a old member of this forum.

^ I was about to say the same thing....he's an old member and one of the first 5sfte's

3rded. I think Steve was one of the first 5S-FTE's on the block (at least that I recall) and he started with the Brullien (sp?) kit and expanded out from there.

I read the site and it says that it was powder-coated

I used the 1200 degree Ceramic Coated Dupli-Color High Heat Paint on my Maxima Valve cover.

50% Shiny than the 500 degree.
