I'd like to blast my valve cover (and Intake too I wish, but too lazy to get that thing out) and make'm look new

anyone around here that has a sand blaster that I can use? :)

Sandblaster, no. But, you can use a wire wheel and a drill to get results just as good.

man, you have to see what a sandblaster does though....

but yeah, I suppose what you said could work too, I didn't think about that

Yeah, I used a sandblaster on the valve cover for my 525i when I refinished it, and it sure did work out nice for the little nooks and crannies.

At the same time, I used only a wire wheel for the valve cover I refinished for my girlfriends camry, and the results were just as good if not better. Plus, the part doesn't have to be extremely clean (no grease) before using a wire wheel like you would need to do before you put it in the sandblaster.

so you just plug some wire cleaner on a drill and go at it? it didn't scratch it or anything?

depends on how hard of a brush you use. Yeah, you can rough up the surface if you use a harsh brush and push hard, but with a fine brush, itll turn out great. I did a VC for a camry I'm almost done with, I'll post photos sometime and show you how it turned out. I'm pretty happy with it, and I did it in my garage vs having to find a sandblaster (biggest bonus).
