Urq Valve Cover Painting

[Marc_Nguyen@mail.amsinc.com]

Greetings all,

I plan on replacing the valve cover gasket on the urq sometime over the
next couple weeks.  The valve cover itself is looking a little worse for
wear.  A good portion of the paint has chipped off, so I figured that while
I have the cover off, I would re-paint it.  Any advice out there?  I figure
I should at least sand off the old paint before the repaint, but I have no
idea what type of paint to use.  Any suggestions?  Does the cover need to
be primed before painting?  Thanks!!
