Thanks James I came up with the same answer. I did ask a guy with a SRT to let me look under his hood for a minute but he said NO ! I guess I should not have told him what I was looking for . Here is my cover.

Just started to redo my cover here are some pics of the first stage more to follow once this coat fully cures

color matches my 05 Inferno Red Crystals paint perfectly

 

I'm starting my project next week what kind of pain are you guys using

 

I meant paint

 

TB, that cover looks good in that color. I was going to do that color then decided I might have to much red under the hood. I would like to see a pic of it installed when finished.

Dont, I used high temp gloss black spray. I used an epoxy primer first to be sure the paint will stick good.

Good luck, James

 

Not with Krylon, but I used Rustoleum Hammered and got a very nice result. I used a rustoleum primer first.

Ever since I was painting Krylon wrinkle paint on my ham radios I made sure that you shake the heck out of the can first. Its a varnish. THen spray, wait spray again like the label says.

After some air drying I popped them into my moms stove with the door open a bit set to about 175 then 200 1/2 hour later for an hour or so. This will set it and it also insures an even wrinkle pattern as if it is too (thin) or dry the wrinkles are smaller.

Just wait till my mom leaves the house as she used to get all fussy that I was into the stove .... a kitchen thing but I was in 6th grade then. She may not say anything to you if you keep it all clean, Aluminum foil keeps the peace for me.

Loving the aroma ( smells like OD SCHOO) Woody

 

I bought an oven to do powder coating in but still use the "wife's" house oven from time to time.
The painted products smell like pizza!
