Not sure exactly how many valve covers you could do, but to put it this way. I’ve done both main covers, motor mounts, bolts, coil brackets, transmission bell housing and output shaft, and a bit of other misc parts in gloss black and still about 1/4 to a 1/3 of a pound left. A pound goes a long way. For the blue I have a bit over half and it’s done the valve covers, valley cover, oil pan, bolts, and some other stuff
New to your channel what was the size of drill bit you used for re-drilling the extra holes on the part in the gun ?? I did see another video where the tip ( a metal tip ) was ex-changed for another & it looks like a PVC type pipe added to the tip of the gun. Would these mods help the gun more ? Since I'm barely starting to powder coat I can't afford even advise LOL to buy extra stuff for the gun. Thanks for the video's its awesome how you use the kiss method (keep it simple stupid ) Bueno sir be checking out the other videos you got.
I used an 1/8” bit. Since these videos the only thing I do different is I run the gun without the diffuser on the tip (the yellow plastic). I find the gun is a lot better without it in corners and I just bump the PSI to barely on when spraying. I don’t know how the metal tip or the PVC mod affect the gun but currently I’m happy with how it works with just the holes drilled out and 2 added. I’m glad you like the content! Thanks for watching!
If you’re working on an LS, like I was in this video, chances are very slim of getting the seal out without damaging or ruining it. I’d always recommend a new seal in this situation. Thanks for watching!
Great Video buddy. I am looking into doing some home Powder coating. Thanks.
Thanks and awesome! Let me know how it goes for you then!
Looks good😊
How many valve cover can you finish with a pound

It’s much cheaper than paints once you’re setup for it. Thanks for watching!

If it’s a new timing cover and seal can you remove the seal and put it back on or it needs to be replaced once removed?
