can i use normal paint on a rocker cover or would i have to use special high temp paint

 

Supposed to use high temp paint but you could use hammerite.

A mate of mine has used spray paint and had no problems with it peeling as long as the paint is put on in several layers it should be ok as the rocker cover doesn't get that hot

 

cheers, now i know

just one more thing would i be able to put a laquer over that with no probs

 

Heat resistant stuff................I wouldn't put my hand on a rocker cover after the engines been run............

 

You could Laquer it

Mr S1 Dont matter if it was heat resistant or not, i wouldnt put my hand on a hot rocker cover at all

Personally i would have it powder coated

 

Thats what I did in standard Ford grey

 

ull hav no probs sprayin it base n clear, thats wat ive dun wiv mine!

 

is dat rite, man, wot bout d oil an stuff dat might discolour it?

please please,it doesnt take that long to type proper,is this text speak?

 

Absolutely.............couldn't agree more
