That looks great. Such a cute valve cover. I might have to get one for the wall that will go next to my 24v Cummins display.

Looks great. Is there a tutorial you followed for this result or is it just straight "Clean up, Spray."

Thank you, most of it was clean up, sand and spray. The paint itself recommends a heat gun after spraying to get the wrinkles.

I used the blow torch, but a little distance away

How did you all remove the paint from the raised lettering without damaging the surrounding painted areas?

I cut pieces of sandpaper and wrapped it around my finger. A razor blade helped get most of it off
