Diy : Head Cover Spray

chinozie said:
Just wanna share with u guys...

Cuz it's only cost u around RM7
1) RM5 - for the Flat Black can spray (make sure it's a Dove Flat Black can spray...)
2) Sand paper

Here how it goes...

1) first the head...chop shop condition...

2) then...wash n clean it...

3) sand paper the head, until all the paint remove...(u can also use paint remover), then the final touch, clean it with "autosol"...

4) meanwhile the plastic cover sprayed with "Dove" flat black...remember to use only "Dove" Flat black can spray others cans tried already, but can't get this result...

5) closer look at the flat black effect...the rough surface...

How to get the rought surface effect...

1) just spray 1 or 2 layer (depends on the thickness u want it) to cover the plastic head...

2) then the final touch...the final layer, spray it ranging about 22inch from the object...the further way up u spray the more rough effect you'll get...make sure u just keep on pressing the spray noozle, swing it left n right evenly...

P/S : The flat black effect look similar like Honda Type-R RedTop colour...but never tried on red colour before...only flat black colour...maybe u guys can try it... :D
Good Luck...


Neat dude! Can we get flat red from dove? The paint you are using is it a high tempreture color? :rock:
 
i've never done it.... but it is quite simple..

remove the rubber air hose... then use a 10mm spanner to remove all de nuts... make sure u have new gasket seal with u.. u wil need to replace it when u are putting it back in place...

when putting de cam cover back in place.. make sure u dun tighten de 10mm bolt too tight... it will make de cover crack...

any comments by those who are experienced?
