Re: [Chevelle-List] Anyone ever Clear coat aluminum?
Because of this I just decided to keep mine uncovered. It's
easier to polish the aluminum then deal with yellowing
coating...Dang!

I have heard about some people polishing up their
aluminum valve covers and then clear coating them to keep them nice
looking and bright. Have any of you done this? If so, what type of clear
coat did you use and what did you use to prep the polished aluminum for
the clear coat? I assume you would have to use a heat approved clear
coat?
Thanks

Re: [Chevelle-List] Anyone ever Clear coat aluminum?
Read on Team Chevelle awhile ago, that POR had developed/re-developed a product that would NOT yellow when used on an intake manifold. Sorry that is all I remember. Kent '68 Malibu ZZ502/502 :)

Cool, thanks. I'm having my ACCEL FI polished during the upcoming engine overhaul and this may just help it stay looking shiny!

Replies to this message are sent to The Chevelle Mailing List I have been told that the Diamond Clear from Eastwood works very well on aluminum intake manifolds. I was going to do this myself as a winter project. Tom - To Unsubscribe please visit www.chevelles.net/list.html To start a new topic, send mail to: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: [Chevelle-List] Anyone ever Clear coat aluminum?
Replies to this message are sent to The Chevelle Mailing List Yes, I tried that. NAPA rattle-can clear coat. Worked great...for awhile. Now, the clear has flaked off in places, and like the rest of the car, looks pretty ratty. That's not to say the concept is bad, but it didn't work out well for me. > [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > > I have heard about some people polishing up their aluminum valve > covers and then clear coating them to keep them nice looking and > bright. - To Unsubscribe please visit www.chevelles.net/list.html To start a new topic, send mail to: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
