But there is another approach I just though of, hobbie shops should have this masking solution, wthat's liquid and you could mask off stuff like with masking tape but with a lot more percision and accuracy.

But yeah, I'm too late and you already done and it looks good! :)

That last approach was what I was looking for!

I could've used nail polish..but I'd be damned if I walk up to the checkout line with nail polish in my hand :-*

I tried spraying the paint in the cap and using a brush, but since it's made up of xylene/acetone..it's rather thin. I suppose using an eyedropper would've worked.

But yea...I did it the hard way. I learned quite a bit too!

I was this || close to buying Kameleon Colors and doing my valve covers that way...but bleh..rice!

I tried to do the same thing with my old D cover. It worked (sort of), but not nearly as nice as yours came out. Good job mang
