[Mad Monkey]

check home depot or lowes, etc.. walmart maybe. something with a big paint dept will giv eyou better choices.

 

[GTBabyGirl]

question. did you have to take the bumpers off?

 

[Mad Monkey]

shouldnt have to, just mask off the area, prep well and go to town.. just might mean spraying on your back lol

 

[nicksilvergt99]

Walmart and home depot in my area only carry rustoleum, I had to go to auto zone just to get duplicolor. Biut I couldn't buy it cause there a an age limit?

 

[Mad Monkey]

HAHAHA age limit.. soo glad im not young anymore LOL

just came back from an 8 hr driving trip 4 hours there and 4 back and the krylon fusion held up great even on gravel roads (gotta love cottage country) theres no chips or scraches only molested by bugs

 

[BwolfGT]

What kind of krylon? Will the indor paint hold up ok on the car?

 

[Mad Monkey]

get krylon fusion, its the best product for the purpose.

 

[BwolfGT]

What about duplicolor?

 

[HART]

any automotive or in this case some home paint will work but before you get to crazy you gotta remember to do this the right way will cost you a fair bit of cash with all the paint clear sand paper tape and what not, try going to a local body shop they might beable to do it for likr $100

i understand that but if i planed on keeping my car longer than i am i would have got out my paint gun, but krylon fusion works great.
all i did was clean the area with nail polish remover and paint i didn't even sand or clear and it looks really nice IMO

 

[Durk Diggler]

That looks awesome I'm going to have to get can of that stuff.

 

[BoostJunki3]

you dont need krylon fusion...you can use black duplicolor automotive paint and just sand like the OP states....it will hold up better in the long run then krylon fusion...the way i did is similar to a body shop rather than buy a can and spray....my paint is stuck to the plastic on the bumper which is better than paint stuck to paint its just common logic which is a better method....you guys can love your krylon fusion all you want but thats the lazy way , mine is painted, cleared, wet sanded, buffed <-fukkin professional...end thread...

 

[Durk Diggler]

The 04+ crowd can be lazy it is just black plastic it's not body color like the 6gens.

 

[BoostJunki3]

for the 04+ it looks better sanded smooth before the paint goes on...
