Exctly what is Wrinkle finish paint, is that paint that would absorb heat or something. Get back to me, thanks

The wrinkle-finish paint is a high-heat temperature resistant type of paint. It is commonly used to refinish BBQ grilles. It works great. Be sure to get the preparation right. If you want to raise the lettering and expose the metal- try using a clean, new razor blade to strip the paint off the lettering. For a better results, use a small Dremel sanding disc to leave a high-quality, brushed finish to the lettering accents. Do not paint the valve cover while on the head. Remove it, and unscrew the nuts to the BMW specs sequence.
