I would pay someone else to remove the part, I'd take it over on the west coast and paint it
so I wouldn't overspray onto my truck, which I would leave in NC. Then I'd bring it back
after I was sure it was dry (a year or two.)
But seriously, I'm only thinking about Valve Covers and small items easily removed. On the
valve covers, though. What would the process be of painting? Do I need to strip the old
paint off? What about putting other stuff on it other than paint, i.e. primer/clear coat?

You can get the paint pretty cheap at any auto store, the only question
is
