Been playing around with the VHT spray paint. I will be getting some nice shiny rocker covers but for the meantime had a play.

I had a pair of beaten up covers that came with one of the engines, bare metal them' primed them and filled the dents I couldn't knock out.

First filled and primed and painted black to look for more dents, once happy with dents then silver look for imperfections then dark could before the silver then the red with a clear coat on top.

As after painting the engine with VHT it doesn't like petrol or antifreeze , odd for engine paint

Yes its snug, dont think I will need to put the heater on

am really happy with the colour, it's only temporary until I decide what shiny cover to buy

I think the valve covers look great as they are Now if you could just get the rest of the engine to match...
