Icon6 civic window trim FADING! help!

hi, the window trim on the civic is fading. was wondering what was the best way to repaint it? should i just buy some trim paint at autozone and paint it? is blue painter's tape enough to prevent overspray? has anyone done this before? alrighty, any input would be greatly appreciated.

A while back I saw something that was Honda trim black. If you can find that, I'd use it.

TONS of painters tape/ some sort of paper covering every inch you don't want painted.

It's a pain, but I would remove the pieces, just to further insure nothing get's painted that you weren't intending to paint.

That is the whole issue, I swear I remember seeing it be called Honda trim black. Maybe try googling it and see what it gets you?

Sorry, It's been a while scene I've looked into paint.
