Video tutorial on how to strip the paint from a valve cover. If you are deciding on painting your valve cover or polishing an aluminum cover, then you will need to strip any existing painted finish. Removing the existing paint from a valve cover is extremely important before adding new paint as you may currently have pealing issues or there can be oil residue trapped underneath which will cause pealing issues for the new paint finish. Stripping paint from a valve cover is certainly not limited to the method shown in this video, but this is an at home method that can be done with minimal tools and cost. Here I am working with a cast aluminum valve cover, but this procedure also applies to steel valve covers as well.

Tools/Supplies Needed:
-safety glasses
-gloves
-paint brush
-paint stripper
-brass wire brush
-water
-degreaser
-nylon brush
-ratchet and socket set
-valve cover gasket

Procedure:
-first start by removing the valve cover
-removal process will vary, but for the most part they are fairly straight forward
-some engines may require a speciality tool to hold the camshafts in place if the bearings are intergraded into the valve cover like Volvo
-when removing the valve cover, I would highly recommend replacing the gasket too
-once you’ve removed the valve cover, we must degrease it
-this will ensure the paint doesn’t have a barrier against the paint stripper
-spray the cleaner onto the cover and allow it to soak into the build up for a minute, then agitate the surface with a brush
-wash both the top side and underside of the cover
-any oil residue is also important to remove for painting because it reduces the chance of any contamination
-this may take a little time depending on the severity of the build up
-once done the valve cover will need to dry now as any water residue can neutralize the paint stripper
-work in a well ventilated area
-next I am using a brush on style paint strippers
-there are various products available on the market along with application types
-this product does come in a jug, so I dump a desired amount into an old disposable cup
-then apply to the cover using a brush
-it’s best to use a smaller brush as you’re able to get into those hard to reach or tight areas
-I would highly recommend wear rubber gloves and safety glasses as protection
-it’s best not to work in direct sunlight and on an extremely hot day as this can affect how the product removes the paint
-it can take anywhere from 5 to 15 minutes for it to sufficiently peal up the existing
-this will also depend on the paint that is used, some paints are more resistance to paint strippers
-if you have a smooth valve cover you can use a plastic scrapper which will reduce the chance of damaging the metal surface
-considering this is an uneven surface, I’ll be using a brass wire brush
-only use a brass wire brush on aluminum valve covers as it won’t excessively scratch the surface
-apply more stripper if needed for the paint that is still in place
-after all the paint has been remove, rinse off the brush or scrapper and valve cover with water to neutralize the paint stripper
-you may need to agitate the surface with the brass wire brush if needed
-once all the paint has been removed and now it’s ready for paint

Living in The Phoenix Metro Area? 5 Key steps to plaster your pool. Visit us: http://arizona.poolsresurfacing.com. Tel. 602-497-0490.

Replastering a swimming pool here in the Grand Canyon state is certainly not a five-minute job. This doesn’t mean that you have to spend money on hiring a professional to do the job. If you are willing to put some time and effort into the project, it is certainly possible to do it yourself. The average swimming pool will require replastering every 7 to 12 years, depending on the method of installation, and how it has been maintained. Don’t want to read this article, then listen to highlights how to plaster an old pool in 5 important steps. https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B_ZToeIOgA2sT0xOckJSanNxTDA/view?usp=sharing

First for the tools and materials needed for the project. You will need the mix for pool plaster, acid wash, paint, soda ash, compressor for air, face mask, cleaning solution, finishing plaster mix, chisel, goggles, sump pump for submerging the pool, mixture for cement or mortar, air hammer, normal hammer, yard brush, sander, putty knife, brush for acid, buckets, hose, rubber gloves, wheel barrow, shovel, paintbrush and sponge. Here are the 5 steps to plaster your old pool.

1. Drain the swimming pool, and use the sump pump to drain all the water remaining at the bottom of the pool. Clean the pool of all dirt and debris. Use the sponge and cleaning solution for this purpose. Make sure you use an environmentally friendly cleaning solution for this purpose.

2. Identify the problematic areas where plaster has peeled off significantly. Pay attention to the edges and corners of the pool. Take away the loose plaster with the chisel and putty knife. Sand the sharp edges where plaster has been taken off. Make sure you sand the areas at least twice to make the areas clean and neat for easy replastering.

3. Spray an acid wash over the surface. Use the acid brush to spread it effectively. It will help give you a new surface that is conducive to applying new plaster. Rinse away the acid wash by using a hose. Now allow the surface enough time to dry. Once it is completely dry, apply a bond coat for replastering with the use of a roller. Let it dry overnight.

4. Prepare the plaster according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Now apply the plaster using a street trowel. Start at the deepest end of the pool. You should make sure that the plaster applied is at least 3/8 inches thick. Make sure the plaster is evenly applied on all areas. Now let the plaster dry completely. Mix the plaster finish, and apply it evenly at a thickness of 1/4 inches. You may use the trowel this time round too. Check for any flaws and correct them before letting the pool dry completely.

5. The final step is to apply the pool paint to cover the entire surface evenly. Using the paint brush in one direction will offer a smooth finish to the job. Do not use the pool until the paint is completely dry.
