Default Decided to Give the Wrinkle Black spray paint a try.

While I'm at a stand still waiting on the heads to get done I figured why not show the Valve covers some love.So I stripped them down and primered them until I decided which color I wanted to go with.After a few beers and some discussion with a couple buddies I decided on Wrinkle Black.

Sanded/Stripped


Primer


Filler Primer



Before curing




After curing

I have used VHT wrinkle pain allot, the more you use the more wrinkles it produces, i like the medium look, but the thick application will hold dust and dirt really easily.

wrinkle finishes always look good. hopefully it sticks on better than most spray can paints.
