Painting trim strips
I'm in the middle of painting my '88 LX right now, and am looking for input in the best covering black trim paint for around the bumpers and around the side of the car.
Also, can I use the same paint for the window trim, or should I just use a regular enamel spray-bomb for that? Thanx, Joe |
Well, I don't claim to have all your answers here, but I have done this before. Make sure you prime the trim before painting. I painted the black trim around my doors and windows without priming and it didn't even last a year. They are now primed and are holding up great.....besides a little whitening from wax getting on the trim.
I dont' know what the stuff I used was...I think it may have been Dupli-Color black trim paint and their gray primer. Whatever it was, it was readily available a the local auto parts store. Good luck! |
Thanks a lot.
Getting the car back monday, then I'll scuff, prime, and paint. |
