TAAAAA DAAAA its done and after a day or so of drying and heating-to speed up the hardning, its ready to strip off the lettering. Dont rush it, touch the lettering to see if the paint is soft or not. I also masked the outlets to allow the hoses to slip on for a leak proof finish.

I cleaned the manifolds and then added 3 coats of paint about 15 minutes apart - temp dependent. But before the last coat dries, just tacks up, avoid runs but add heavy coats, you can paint lightly every 10 minutes if warm.

Trick is to warm paint after last coat has hardened up about 1/2 hour. I PAINT the surface with heat lamps moving as needed to SPREAD the wrinkle effect. Its interesting to watch.
