I just love those valve covers! Where did you get the Tartan paint,does it spray on or did you use a special brush?  Jock

Jock, what clan? | | | | | Joined: Mar 2001 Posts: 1,181 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Mar 2001 Posts: 1,181 | Jockbolt, I ordered the paint in a spraycan from Acme Cartoon Supply, I saw it used once in a Bugs Bunny episode. On another BB I'm on a member thought I painted them that way. I wonder how long that would take. | | | | | Joined: Dec 2008 Posts: 59 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Dec 2008 Posts: 59 | Looks great!
