Always make sure to paint right in front of your car with white wheels, if done correctly you'll be pissed with the end result.

@TomsTurboGarage 6 лет назад

That looks incredible! What a great idea for filling those letters!

@johndelay6730 6 лет назад

Tom's Turbo Garage agreed

@hallquiche 6 лет назад

The amount of fun this guy gets out from his car is heartwarming.

@BecauseMiata 6 лет назад

That turned out great! The letters look really good too. Let it be known that this tip only works on a 1.6 cover. The NA 1.8 has raised letters, so people tend to sand down the letters for silver letters.

@TheCarPassionChannel 6 лет назад

+Because Miata My motor is a 1.8.

@lkkjhg45 6 лет назад

The 94-97 1.8's have raised letters. Later heads (99-06) have recessed (like Greg's).

@BecauseMiata 6 лет назад

TheCarPassionChannel I forget you have a NB engine. So yes you're right, the 1.8 NB engines have recessed letters like the 1.6 NA engines. But if you have a 1.8 NA engine, then yours (like mine) has raised letters. I know it can get confusing to those new to Miatas.

@alexm4515 4 года назад

Epic idea with a syring. My only disappointment is that I have to watch 10 other videos before I got to yours. Nice job thank you

@veniamingolovenko8464 6 лет назад

That has got to be the cleanest valve cover paint/lettering job I have Ever seen on this. In my opinion this is better than those hydrodipped valve covers

@Quinney84 6 лет назад

It must have been his track/race car. Think nothing of spending thousands on engine, brakes, tyres etc but body work is duct tape n cable ties and overspray lol.

@MichaelSnyder1990 6 лет назад

I'm binge-watching your rebirth playlist and I'm in love. You clearly have a love for cars and engineering and have a passion for knowledge and teaching. Thank you so much for posting your videos. You've made a subscriber out of me. Plus you have the pixel phone which makes you that much cooler. I've got one too and I will never buy any other brand of phone. Thank you again and keep up the awesome work.

@connorbradley6684 6 лет назад

How could I be bored when I used this video series to tear apart my 1.6 from my 92 Miata, Greg is the reason I bought a miata!

@conormiller3662 6 лет назад

Also this looks so amazing. Especially that red on the black. Pops so well

@jackmydmax8792 6 лет назад

I wrinkle painted my valve covers on my 5.3 ls motor and they turned out sweet. The oil cap looks like a old boat gas tank cap.... I dig it!

@sam_scott_85 6 лет назад

Great idea on how to fill the letters! I did my cover in wrinkle red a while ago and wanted to fill them in black but wasn't sure how. Ordering supplies now!

@pappamurphytacos2771 6 лет назад

So how does painting your valve color make it rice. If you do it correctly it should look good

@Eastsidegeorgiaboy 6 лет назад

Gin-Jesus it's the way that he did it. He was being lazy. he didn't do a good job on his prep work. he didn't prime it. and he painted those parts way too close to his car. that's how it was riced.

@zoenayru 6 лет назад

Eastsidegeorgiaboy it can't be rice unless his claiming it adds horsepower ,do you even know what Rice stands for ? I've seen people with 500 hp on their car with paint jobs like this (black and red) on their engine bay

@fakename287 5 лет назад

@@Eastsidegeorgiaboy it's wrinkle paint, you don't really do much prep beforehand

@danielinacar 3 года назад

It doesn't "make it rice". This is just something that ricers generally do

@mgamma5001 6 лет назад

Hey Greg, nice work, looks super pro... I will have to do that to mine for sure.

@chris5468 6 лет назад

I watched the ending twice! I'm for sure trying this.

@SebastianD215 6 лет назад

Wow, besides Gingium, you're the only other person who admits that they are going rice/were rice before. Cool.

@TheOnlyToblin 6 лет назад

I...really don't understand how a nice looking engine bay is rice. Huge-ass wings, diffusers and massive body kits on stock cars is rice. But how is a show-room class engine bay rice? That makes no sense to me.

@SebastianD215 6 лет назад

well, I know, but he said, "we're going full rice", but I know it's not ricey. Maybe if the cover was green, and the letters were pink. But he's not a moron. Also, Gingium admitted that for a while with his Miata build, Molly, he went rice for a time. But not anymore.

@remixislandmusic510 6 лет назад

yeah. molly is gonna have 500hp soon! lol

@kanggoo57 6 лет назад

but even with green/pink color, its not rice how is it race inspired? people should come up with a new word for that stupid shit, its just dumb.

@mecon92 6 лет назад

Looks excellent! I did the same color combo on my 1.6 valve cover years ago. I did wrinkle powdercoat though, and it's beginning to bubble and flake off (I dont think I prepped the cover well enough). Might have to try the wrinkle paint! I used some leftover G2 caliper paint for the lettering, which has held up extremely well.

@mpak80 6 лет назад

Excellent job. Thought everyone powder coated. Great Channel. Will do this soon to all my cars!

@fallenbullseye 6 лет назад

Great tips and tricks! Looks amazing!

@BerkeleyGang 3 года назад

Looks nice. The NA6 (1.6l) has the recessed letters like that. The NA8 (1.8l) and NB has raised lettering. A little harder, but we have the option of sanding the paint off the letters and having polished aluminum lettering.

@HoboSmeller 6 лет назад

will I get more horse power painting on a home depot bucket or can I use a lowes bucket?

@TheCarPassionChannel 6 лет назад

another_red_miata Home Depot bucket is typically 3-4% more horsepower, but some have reported better low-end response using the Lowe's variant.

@nopers2223322 6 лет назад

wow thanks Greg! i will do this right after I change my headlight fluid.

@stigrabbid589 6 лет назад

+TheCarPassionChannel Using an Ace Hardware bucket gives a bit more high-end torque as well. True-Value buckets add more peak horsepower (about 1 to 2HP in most cases).

@Elitesniper257 6 лет назад

Nope don't forget to oil your Turbo Encabulator too...

@GK5_ 6 лет назад

I heard that a Rona bucket can give up to 7%

2nd rule is don't paint anything near your car unless you like overspray.

@mrgcc 6 лет назад

Dude video and the effect came out great! I will most likely end up doing this on mine now and will give you a shout out when I do the vlog for that haha!

I finally got my car put back together! It was a real ordeal, but I got the water pump put on right. The gasket was off the first time I tried and since it wasn't the metal gasket I put extra holes in it with the water pump bolts. I was so relieved when it wasn't leaking coolant and it started up again!

If you are painting multiple parts do them at the same time because different outside temps will change how the wrinkle comes out, the parts will look different.

Do you think the Testors paint will hold up considering the heat in the engine? I did the lettering on mine by completely masking it off using painters tape and cutting the letters out. The I sprayed High Heat paint. Same effect but I will admit that yours looks better...lol

@Spoo76 6 лет назад

Another option for paint when doing the letters is nail polish enamel. Its usually cheaper than hobby paint especially when on sale, available at every CVS, Walgreens, Walmart ect. It's also available in FAR more colors. Model car builders do this to replace testors sometimes. Just fill the syringe and use just like the testors.

@stigrabbid589 6 лет назад

You can even get cheapo nail polish in dollar stores.

@Art_thr0b 6 лет назад

good to see a how to yet bad prep, you spray outside (dust and bugs w/ other debris) also right next to a car (over spray)

@WigglingWaffles 6 лет назад

I did this exact idea a couple weeks ago, except i painted the letters red first, filled them with vaseline and then painted black over top. The paint below didnt dry and top paint peeled off when i used a toothpick to remove the vaseline :/
