I just wanted to see if you guys have had any trouble with the paint sticking. My body-shop told me it may not stick correctly due to mold-release from when they were manufactured! What do you think????

mine look awsome, I got my entire car painted F1 red (s2k red) and they used a litle ectra flex agent in the paint and wiped them down a couple of times. They told me the usual reasons are the silicons used un Protectant pruducts used when detailing. I cleaned them before I sent it up with Bleach White and a tire brush. No problems at all. I have kids that step on mine constantly. I even have a small scratch in one from dirty feet (sand) and my boy slipping. No problems. They used Sikkens brand paint and I think bullgdog flex promer.
