GutlessSupreme Posted August 31, 2004 Report Share Posted August 31, 2004 Damn did u paint it at all or strickly put yur back into that cleaning job ? :shock: me? no paint, just lots of degreaser and sanding. at some point though when I finally get around to pulling the plenum to change the PCV I want to paint it (the plenum) black, leaving the lettering silver though. http://www.w-body.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=19656what color blue is that I dunno.. you'd have to private message no1kicker and ask him.

What kind of degreasers did u use ??? The first can of stuff I got was a big yellow/red areosol can, I THINK the brand was "Snaps" or something like that :? I heart Purple Power works good too so I grabbed a spray bottle of that, I'd go ahead and try that first since it's supposed to be biodegradable.
