thanks | | |

Looks great (like polished alluminum)and outlasts all that exhaust coats in the spray cans. It comes in a little can so you can use a brush, wich is easyer if you got the exhaust on the car. It costs only $3 and you can paint at least 30 headers wit one can. | | |

They say money can't buy happiness. It can buy old Chevy trucks though. Same thing. 1972 Chevy c10 Cheyenne SuperIn the Gallery Forum | | |
