Done it on the carb engine in the civic.
1. Use Nitro Mers to strip down the old paint (available in painters shopps for stripping varnish) might take a few times with this.. 2. Clean it well with pre cleaner or petrol if your cheap like me 3. Primer (I did on mine anyway) 4. Spray until your happy with the finish (normal or crinkle paint whatever style or colour suits you) 5. Then sand the vtec logos etc with fine sandpaper using a sanding block to bring the writing back to aluminium. Thats what I done for mine anyway pic in a minute when I upload is[8D]

I believe covering the lettering with a layer of vaseline works well and saves sanding afterwards.
