Hey Chris, just wanted to let you know how much of an impact you've had on my life. I didn't know what I wanted to do as a career and you have shown me the basics of being a mechanic so I'm going to college in the fall to learn more 🙂
I was gonna say just wipe them letter off while the paints wet or sand it doing that tape trick is so time consuming
Nice! Great video. Think I can do my Mustang myself..
chris should I paint my timing belt
looks great
does my tint coat have to be heat resistant if my base coat and and my clear coat are? having a hard time finding the exact color code i want matched for heat resistant paint
6 years have gone by and I legit searched for THIS video now that im ready to paint some motorcycle projects. Thank you sir!

5:07 I like to use a cotton swab soaked in alcohol to go around lettering. You’d be surprised by how much junk you can dig out that way.
If you want the paint stripper to work better put your parts in a trash bag while they sit
Love this 🎉
13:20 I would recommend that you should scrape off the rust in the heat shield of the exhaust manifold with a metal wire brush before painting it because it makes it look "brand new". Just my opinion…
really should have mentioned this only works for certain types of valve covers in currently scrubbing spray paint out of my valve cover
So you perp the metal with the plastic adhesion promoter?
Wore wheel on drill or angle grinder would take the paint off better than hand held brushes.
For some reason I have this feeling like if I ever bumped in to Chris randomly somewhere, he'd have a bottle of soapy woorder in one of his hands.
Chris, just got a question, I intend to paint the cover (which is plastic I guess, can I use the same spray paint as the ones you used for the metal parts?
is every primer heat resistant
I’m 10 but I have the best idea on what to do for a living
Thanks for this tutorial! I can paint my old hotwheels now without messing up the paintjob!
I just got a 93 civic this playlist is about to help a ton
I’m late to the party, but it’s important to note that there are several different paints, primers as well as several different plastics. Make sure you know what type of plastic you’re working with and make sure your adhesion promoter, primer and paints all work with that plastic or it was peel very quickly.
Chris is the vanna white of automotive car videos . Those hand motions were def practiced
On each video …Very good explanation, and your advise are so important – well done…your born 4 that Chris Fix…! HeLL΅0 ,from⚜️Qc.🇨🇦
Ngl,should of gotten the polishing wheel out for the logos and below your sticker, gotten that super shiny would have made it POP pop, also, a file on the logo ends would also leave nice bare polished aluminium rather than the kinda still tarnished valve cover…
Curious as to how that heat shield paint has held up
You make it look easy. When an inexperience person actually does it, it becomes a challenge. You're such a pro. Great work Chris!
Bro it's more easy to take out intake 😂😂😂
Hey Chris did you cover your engine with anything while you worked on painting the cover??
14:12 And for reduced fuel consumption and engine wear, do not install spark plugs.😆
i wanna do this but isn’t bad to leave your engine uncovered like that?
