Rocker cover refurb

[Marcus+2]

Hi all - a little help and advice please.

I am trying to de-orange bits of my car including the rocker cover of the beautiful twin cam engine.

Ideally I would like this to be restored to a black crinkle finish with exposed alluminium highlights.

Has anyone had this professionaly done by blasting and powder coating, or is this something I could attempt myself with some paintstripper, some spray cans and a bit of elbow grease?

Thanks.

Hi,
Try Redditch Shot blasting. Have done some excellent work for me in the past.

In the past i have just stripped the paint. Bought a spray can of "crackle/crinkle paint". Sprayed then popped in the Oven while swmbo was shopping.
Perfect result.
