  • Ever wanted that powder coated finish, without the cost of powder coating? That's where VHT Wrinkle Paint comes in. It's extremely easy to paint in your own garage with no special ovens or paint guns, and gives you a near identical wrinkle to powder coating. We're going to be fixing up the Valve Cover on this 1992 Mazda Miata with some VHT Wrinkle Black!

    I did this using almost the exact same techniques a little over two years ago and it still looks like new. I did use hi-temp VHT primer though. I have a 1.8 with the raised lettering and I scrapped the wrinkle paint off the top of the raised portion so the bare aluminum shows through against the black wrinkle. Looks good.

    Nice work, looks good and really complement an already sweet looking engine bay.

    Very nice, cool to see the wrinkle pull through.

    Really nice job. I like the quicker heat gun 'method' - more fun and it beats baking it in the oven. This video would inspire confidence in any novice painter.
    I'd like to see more videos on heat management e.g. what effect bonnet vents make to cooling and similarly for the splash guard and a DIY duct from the front air opening to the splash guard.
    Keep up the great work.

      I’ve got a splash guard video coming I think. I just need enough nice days and free time to go out and film it.
      Hood vents and stuff might have to wait until we build a more track oriented Miata.

    Thanks for the video... I have two cans of VHT wrinkle red, will get primer next. I saw that you didn't replace the CAS o-ring. Had it been done before?

    • @NappMotorsports
      @NappMotorsports  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      I did it back when I did his timing belt a couple months back. When you take the valve cover off, the cap that houses the CAS o ring doesn’t get removed, so it’s not like a new leak should start.

    What is the filter for and where did you get it?

    • @NappMotorsports
      @NappMotorsports  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      I believe it comes with the track dog racing kit.

    Did you sand/scuff the primer?

    • @NappMotorsports
      @NappMotorsports  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Nope. You can if you want to but there’s no need.

    • @NappMotorsports
      @NappMotorsports  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      The only car I’ve seen it fail on was Greg Peters (@thecarpassionchannel) because his top mount turbo was right next to it and cooked it. Otherwise it seems to hold on forever.
