I have completely lost my patience trying to clean up my valve covers, ( paint and baked on rubber gasket) I have been leaning away from just blasting them clean in about 5min, because I do not want to chance getting any grit behind the baffles and what not.
My question is, has anyone done this? Any recommendations?
Hers what i tried so far:
Hot tanked
aircraft remover( got 95% of the paint off)
Several types of scraping tools to remove the gasket( got about 90% of that off)
I tried torching the rest of the gasket off and was a little sucessful. as for the 5% of paint left It kinda flakes off now and there are burn marks all over the cover.
I really wanna blast these things.
