Hondahunter Posted September 18, 2008 Share Posted September 18, 2008 alright cool, ill buy an extra one from mitsubishi when i get home and send you the paint and valve cover... you need me to send the purple paint, and the clear coat right? and i appreciate it Sweet! Yeah, if you can send the paint and clear. Idk how much that would raise shipping, if it's something I can buy locally you can just send a MO for that (and return shipping ) and I'll buy the paint/clear. Purple with all that HKS is gonna look MEAN! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pballer2005 Posted September 19, 2008 Share Posted September 19, 2008 my bad i meant the flat black or the black a hammered texture (at least i think that's what its called) it was a texture i saw on a strut bar, it was rough, almost like they had panted over course sand.

Hondahunter Posted September 19, 2008 Share Posted September 19, 2008 I know what you're talking about, that textured paint. My VC was powdercoated black (stock), but I really didn't like it. You want texture? Spray a truck with bedliner!!! No rust for quite awhile!!! Haha. I actually know somebody who did it! I've driven the truck.

I've driven the truck. i didn't think you would be able to spray bedliner on something like a VC, wouldn't it melt? man that would smell awful.

Hondahunter Posted September 20, 2008 Share Posted September 20, 2008 you need a stripper in a aircraft? lol whats aircraft stripper, never heard of it... like paint thinner kinda? It's a paint stripper, they sell it at walmart. If you need pics i can get them for you, it's about $6 a can. I'll send what's left over back to you. Btw you can be mean to your friends and spray this on them, burns like a MOFO!!! i didn't think you would be able to spray bedliner on something like a VC, wouldn't it melt? man that would smell awful. haha i'm sure it would. You saying textured just made me think of that crazy truck. If you wanted a textured VC, they have it in a couple different colors, namely black. I can always do yours for you quote] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kastigir Posted September 25, 2008 Share Posted September 25, 2008 Instead of starting a new thread, figured I'd ask in here. Would painting an oil pan be a similar process you think? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hondahunter Posted September 25, 2008 Share Posted September 25, 2008 Instead of starting a new thread, figured I'd ask in here. Would painting an oil pan be a similar process you think? yeah, i'd just make sure to coat it like I did my VC. 3 coats primer, 5 coats paint, 3 coats clear. May sound like a lot of coating, but the way it came out i wouldn't have done it differently. Also, Brian, I should be set up for PC by January. Idk when you get back or if you decided to go locally, but I can paint/PC whichever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Remember that is a candy color, and quite a bit more difficult, and time consumiing! hey mike, brian likey this color :drool: I concur that is a very nice color, I like most of the candy colors!

Pballer2005 Posted September 26, 2008 Share Posted September 26, 2008 as far as colors and decoration go i would have to have a chromed block, dark grey headeer, and the valve sover the same color as my exterior. that purple color aint bad either, i like the way it has different shades in the light, would be nice if there was a better picture. is it possible to paint the valve cover with exterior paint? i live in the desert and my car's exterior feels about as hot as the vale cover once it's sat in the sun for a while.

Hondahunter Posted September 28, 2008 Share Posted September 28, 2008 yeah i figured that, where would you get high heat paint in a pearl color like that? Not sure if you meant this, but that isn't a pearl color. It's a candy, so you would have to lay down a base, color, and clear. Lot more into candy colors like Pearce said. High heat paint you can get at most auto parts stores (ie autozone/napa). I'd search around the net, not totally sure what you're looking for.
