Side Mouldings and Bumper Spray Painting
I painted my bumpers (polyurethane) and side mouldings last year with rustoleum spray paint. I prepped with 200 and 300 grit sandpaper then washed, dryed, put two coats of primer, and 2 or 3 coats of flat black spray. The bumpers and mouldings are all fading. Basically, give me suggestions of spray paint that you have used or would recommend. I was thinking of Krylon Plastic Paint, but I'm not too positive

Just use rustoluem again. Just do 2 coats or something, should be fine. Nobody is really worried about the bumper/mouldings unless they are a HT user anyways. They generally just care about "does it work/start/ miles"

the moldings should stay black, it keeps a little more value in your car, just use mothers, or maguiars back to black for plastic and rubber trim

Re: Side Mouldings and Bumper Spray Painting
for the side molding i have had luck in the hot cali weather using sem trim paint. If sem is not available then duplicolor trim paint. This will keep your outside trim pieces looking black for over a year. as for your bumper there is not really a good way to make it look nice without the proper prep and paint gun
