Painting the Rocker Cover

Post by jacobyte »

Hi can anyone tell how to do it, i have some high temperature engine paint and brake cleaner, what i would like to know is how best to do it, i know if i take off cover then will need new gasket probably, not wanting to get that so any other ways to do without this method been used, any info or help would be appreciated thanks. :?

Painted it :)

Will let it dry then go over it again and finish it off and trim off unwanted painted bits.
