HOW TO USE EARLY CHEVROLET VALVE COVERS ON YOUR LATE MODEL CHEVY.
In this video, I show you the areas you need to address in order to achieve the old school cool look with early model valve covers on your later model Chevy. As a little bonus, there is some valve cover dent repair. If you'd like to see a video on just dent repair, leave a comment.

Great job on those valve covers, they look brand new to me; remember, the more time that you spend with the mask On... the longer you'll live, you don't really want paint in your lungs in the long term, also, you'll see that your buggers are of the colour of the things that you'd painted that day, it's not a good sign, use the mask. To aboid the paint, coat or clear squirts from the sprays there're two common things that one can do, space the pieces that you gonna paint, as simple as that; or... there're "muzzle replacers?" ('recambios de boquilla') for the sprays, for less than 3€, that you put in place of the spray muzzle and are a regulable muzzle with a trigger for two or three fingers and a nut that you turn left or right to regulate (open or close) the arc of the paint or whatever the spray that you're using is, they improve a lot the final resoult and the job; but, you've to clean 'em after each use, always clean and maintain your tools. To remove paint tears or whatever... use a microfiber cloth, or even paper, quickly and take it off, remove that tear without put pressure on the spot to don't leave a mark there, the next layer will/should equalize the height of the paint, base coat, clear or whatever; you can deep the spray's muzzle in thinner and clean the exit hole and the hole in the base of the muzzle with a very slim needle to make sure it's clean. That engine look beutiful at the end; hope that Elaine and you had a great 4th of july and that you've an even better week, stay well man.

I remember back in the 60’s when wrinkle paint came out my brother did his valve covers and put them in my mom’s oven, she was mad😂 She cleaned the the whole oven with brush on easy off, smelled up the whole house and he was never to use the oven again for paint projects 😂😂😂

@@MrDanielSoliz on my old covers, the driver side cover has two holes. One for the PCV valve and the other for the oil filler. But the new cover only has one hole for the PCV valve. Do I need to cut a hole in it for the oil filler or get rid of them ?

Great vid Danny..Suggestion..If you're as anal as Me.. follow the primer with a thick coat of silver paint on top of the raised Chevrolet script .. wait a day to dry then top coat with black ...wait a day to dry... then use rubbing compound on the raised Chevrolet script to rub off the black from the Script . You then have a licence plate effect. Top coat with clear. This method works on licence plate and pickup truck endgate lettering restorations as well.
