I’ve been wondering the same thing myself. I was going to buy engine enamel and use a small brush to do the fins one at a time.

I just know what a tedious project it will be doing it like that.

Use Harley Davidson texture black paint. It matches the texture from the factory. You can get it at any Harley dealer.



Rocker box covers looked ratty before.

And I disassembled and painted them with texture black Harley paint.



I also did this motor with the same paint. It works great and you literally can’t mess it up.
