[QUOTE="Snowbound, post: 14635, member: 2963"] Same thing with the head. Carefully remove the big chunks. I hate seeing people using a razor scraper on aluminum but I do it all the time. Just carefully. Do not gouge it. I would have sent heads in but I don’t have time. They were saying 2 weeks turnaround. I’ll just do my thing and check it. Same thing as block, WD40 and work it. I did 3 passes on this as well. Here’s how it looked before I started, for reference. [ATTACH=full]1412[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1413[/ATTACH] Here’s how it looks as your working it. Remember, this isn’t karate kid and wax the car. Side to side, up and down and diagonal both ways. [ATTACH=full]1414[/ATTACH] Keep flat as possible, not a lot of pressure needed. Wipe it off and check your work. [ATTACH=full]1415[/ATTACH] Looking good, we are getting there but I’m not happy yet. Let’s do another round. [ATTACH=full]1416[/ATTACH] Now I’m happy. Looks like it should seal. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk [/QUOTE]
