Spraying black exterior trim

[Mikeyjp]

so basically i have seen the guides on heating them up, but it will only last so long, so i thought about plastic primer and spray them satin black, but in the end i have gone for a can of plastikote black matt, and a can of gloss

will use the gloss to spray my winter wheels see how they look, and i have some spare plastic trim the garage to try it out on, should be here next week so will have a crack and post up some before and after pics

right, still waiting for the matt black to turn up, but i have had a go with the gloss, and done my spare front grill, and sprayed the exhaust trims

For me i don't like spraying the plastics as once you do one part you need to do everything.

Exhaust Trims, Front Grills, Wing Mirrors, Rear Bumper Strip and so on.

I would just rather buy new genuine items

yeah that will fade again , and with plastikote its nice and easy, no messing about having to sand it down, or undercoats, or a laqure all not needed
