Would this also suit repainting the transmission linkage cover ? Mine is missing paint in a lot of spots

I've used the VHT wrinkle finish a lot on projects. I like to use it on Porsche valve covers - a little Ferrari-esque, but cool.

It is nothing like the Recaro finish. The closest people seem to have gotten is by using a shutz gun type arrangement (like the underbody) but really dialing in the viscosity and air pressure with lots of trial and error. You still then have to top it with a satin black finish. I think Eric Lindner did a write up on a process he uses on ESR some years ago.

Yes John, it was the Ferrari rocker cover finish I was thinking of. Its probably too course a finish for the seat brackets though. I found the old can of VHT paint in the garage today after reading this thread.

I will have a crack at painting a recliner in the VHT
paint with an air hose nearby to help

Tony Garcia seems to have it sorted if the set of seats I just received is any indication

I will ask how he does it

So getting back on track the engine went in today, that is the rebuilt, matching numbers engine with rebuilt throttle bodies went in today to replace the 2.7 Carrera motor it came with,

Been a bit of a journey but the end result will be very nice.
