I was working on the 56 Studebaker with my friend Mark today. He painted his new fuel tank with a special paint. It looks amazingly like wrinkle black paint. I think it might be a suitable substitute for wrinkle black paint on valve covers. Let me know what you guys think. It is Wurth rattle can undercoating. It says it is a rubberized undercoat, but it is not sticky and rubbery like most rattle can undercoatings, it is actually more like a paint. It is very easy to spray, and this is how it looks when it dries. No more hoping the paint wrinkles.

I have heard of Wurth products and their good reviews. It does not look like a wrinkle finish to me. It looks like undercoating, just like the can says.
 
Nice looking finish, I wonder how well it holds up in day to day driving.
 
It would be interesting to see how it holds up in the heat of an engine compartment. I looked it up, and you can buy it on Amazon. You could also create an account at Wurth and get it cheaper. It doesn't appear that they want a tax number to sell to you.
