Re: ROCKER COVER IDEAS?

Duplicolor Good stuff. Most people I know that have done their rockercovers have used it. Vtec_junky used the bronze on his rockercover and it looks tyte. Even has that wrinkle effect.

Re: ROCKER COVER IDEAS?

Well, after stuffing it up trying to rush it on a cold night in the shed and water formed on it, I rescued it and dried it with a hairdryer + Warmer drawer on the oven, lol

gave it another coat on a cold morning, and it went milky...

Final coat after I heated the thing in warmer drawer then rushed out side and used last drops out of can and got the desired result...phew!

came out OK, Big thanks to CIVTEC who just gave me the shaved cover after he and his flatmate did all the work, maybe I should have given it a final wet /dry but meh, its ok, still needs a clear, its kinda Satin Bronze at the moment

thoughts?

Re: ROCKER COVER IDEAS?

didnt mask up the oil cap hole, spark plug holder thingie holes, plug holes or the earths sam, could have trouble getting screws into them and not fucking the paint, plus the engine earths wont work as good
still looks better than it did on thursday

Re: ROCKER COVER IDEAS?

Looks nice, but agree'd i would have masked the oil cap hole especially. When you screw the cap on its going to scrap the paint off the thread and go through your oil. May not harm it but stil

Nice job though

Re: ROCKER COVER IDEAS?

Heh, while I am at work, I grabbed a Razor and attacked those parts as the paint is only a day or so old...
