I just thought I'd share my winter project... Engine detailing, starting with the Cylinder Head Cover.
I wanted to go for either a wrinkle finish red, or a smooth red enamel - and decided upon the smooth finish for easy maintenance in the future.
This is why I decided to tidy things up a bit... (besides - it will compliment the DASC which I am just about to buy!)
First step was to completely remove all the grease, oil and protective wax which was on the head cover. Next I gave it a blast with brake cleaner and dried it completely... Then came the spraying. Lots of thin layers!
And this is my progress so far... a nice shiney Metalic Red enamel cover!!!
I should have it back on tomorrow night - and I will put up some more pics as I go a long...
