    Valve cover tip

    Has your Viper script got corrosion or greyed up?
    Here is a cheap easy tip to polish them up.

    Remove the cover, In Gen IV its easy, buy 2 Garryflex rubbers, you can
    find them cheap on Ebay,
    they are used by jewellers to polish metals, get a fine 120 and a medium 240,
    If quite bad use a 60 first
    http://www.amazon.co.uk/s/?ie=UTF8&k...l_3yibov7esj_b

    Work the script with the medium till corrosion is gone, mint up
    with the fine and finish off with a little Autosol, results are excellent
    one cover took me 20 mins

    Is there something to put over the lettering afterward that would protect the new finished surface?

    See the Garryflex rubbers in the amazon link in first post, I just wax polish the letters after,
    bearing in mind once clean, a little autosol clean once a month keeps as new
