but Feen don't be fooled my house stunk up a bit with the baking of parts. I had done my calipers black and when I went to do the rears it was just not a good smell around the house. Had to air it out before the GF got home and QUICK!!!

I'm about to paint my upper and lower, and valve covers Ford Blue. You can't beat the classic. It's a nice contrast under the hood in my opinion...

I'm here ......

and replied to the pm he sent......

The only trouble with painted engine parts

it is 50/50 if the paint will stick or if the heat will affect them.....

Not because i powdercoat but if is the best way to go.....

Before i got into it i had many parts done....

Which probably why i do it now......

saves the wait time.....

Funny you say that. I worked at a place that made a LOT of her stuff. The sheets, covers, comforters, pillow cases, trimming, many other things. And then the beotch goes to jail and the place shuts down.

Just today I made a devils food cake with milk chocolate icing. I'm the cook in my house, and I'm already preparing for Thanksgiving. All the trimmings:
20 pound turkey
cornbread stuffing
punkin pies
candied yams
fresh corn
homemade mashed taters

Default dont use spray paint

u can use spray paint but it has to be able to withstand heat,google powder coating in your area. or google eastwood garage,there on u tube as well. you can buy a powder coating kit,but you can use a oven in your house if it will fit and if your mamma allows it. watch the ut tube video it explains everything. be patient go powder coating.
