Re: [alfa] Decision made- valve cover polishing!
I'm a little late to the discussion and you've already made your purchase. However, for those discussing the wrinkle finish, the Rhino Liner stuff comes to mind. It's not a true wrinkle finish but would fit the bill nicely. Can be sprayed on in colours, lasts a lifetime, and is impurvious to oil and chemicals.
I might try this with a spare cam cover I have for the Spider. If it turns out nice, I'll do the Verde cam covers and plenum. I'll try to get some pictures posted when I get it done.
FWIW, based on what they quoted me to do the whole interior and underside of the super ($500-600) this will probably be relatively cheap. Lifetime guarantee too.
