M635 rocker cover restoration
Re: M635 rocker cover restoration
Do you have before and after pictures??guido wrote:I've enjoyed reading Kos's thread very much: viewtopic.php?f=9&t=8230&hilit=in+the+family&start=75
It's prompted me to do the same and tidy up a few parts on my car, a M635, by powder coating/vapour blasting the following:
- rocker cover,
- power steering reservoir,
- airbox,
- ignition rail,
- scuttle panel cover for heater,
- inlet manifold/plenum,
- front and rear light surrounds,
- top of front screen motor,
- any other parts that I find that can be done eg brackets etc,
I'm just looking to tidy the car up cosmetically. Can anyone offer any pointers on what needs replacing at the same time as removing parts to be cleaned/painted?
For example, should I fit a new rocker cover gasket or can I reuse the one that comes off?
Can the ignition leads be removed from the rail?
Any other advice greatly appreciated - thanks.

Milroy,
I taped off my raised lettering, I also cut around the lettering with a razor blade.
Before spraying a High Temp Black Crinkle Finish.
I baked it in the oven at 250 deg, for 30 min.
Removed the tape, and block sanded the lettering, with up to 2000 grit.
I do not show a photo after block sanding,
Best,
