In this video I show the method I use to restore aluminum intake manifolds. This is not the most durable method, but if you are looking to make your manifold look new in less than 30 minutes and for less than $10, this is for you! It's easily touched up, so if you scratch it, or if it starts to look bad, just touch it up! Be sure to Subscribe to our channel for more buid videos, event coverage, and tech videos!

I get really good results with glass beads. Looks shiny new. I always follow up with this paint. Can barely tell the difference. That paint looks amazing.

I used to work for a Sign company, and to clean Sign cans, we used Muratic Acid. Sometimes diluted, and sometimes not. Works great on bike motors, wheels, valve covers, even removes Aluminum bits stuck to nickel cylinders like a blown up Snowmobile.

That is the same paint I use on aluminum. I have always had good luck with it. I have also used the same brand of paint and put some clear over it and it looks beautiful.

I am about to offer my services to the public. The BEST way is using a Vapor Honing Technologies machine. When I clean an intake, it will look better than new if it doesn't have any corrosion or pitting in the aluminum. Also subbed for the good content.

@onomatopoeidia

Really nice. I’ve also gotten a nice finish by polishing the aluminium then clear coating but really like that look you got.

Nice, much better than I thought it would be when you said you’d paint it.

I appreciate the video. Researching similar process for a scooter crankcase that's been sitting open.

Pretty cool! I use cast blast from Seymour paint for aluminum parts. It's the same stuff our shop paints all the transmissions we build.

I've do this with a new intakes because if not it will look like crap after a couple of years of street use and any clear always yellows. Looks good for a long time.

I use Seymore Alumi Blast even on intakes out of the box. They don't fuel stain & are easy to wipe clean & look very similar to the new look. Been doing this since 2010. Love it!
