Damn never seen vapor blasting before and what a perfect video to see it in action being someone who's unhealthily obsessed with crusty datsuns

That really turned out great! I would definitely put a coat of Cerakote clear on it to protect it. The bare aluminum finish won’t hold up. It will darken and corrode very quickly

The outside is the easiest part

Ok... but whats the best way to clean valve coveres for your everday shade tree mechanic without this type of equipment?

it depends on the contamination and ageing. Sometimes a degrease, sometimes acid wash. Also depends what the cover is made from.

Terrible finish, looks very patchy!

What you are seeing are the corroded areas on the alloy as lights reflects in to the pitting. With out recasting a new piece you can not get a better finish than vapour blasting.
