Like the topic says. What brands and types of spray paint do you guys recommend?

 

Kylon Fusion for plastics??

 

Dupont has paint for trim, but you might have to invest on a paint gun.

they also have one in the spray can form. works well

 

Pro form makes a killer trim paint. European trim and bumper black...

 

my friend used SEM trim paint for his interior and it looks really nice and holds up too

 

thanks for the responses

 

scuff-&gt; adhesion promoter on some plastics, if metal skip that-&gt; epoxy primer-&gt; base-&gt; clear-&gt; done.

 

yup, need to prep it good for it to hold up well.

 

I use dupli-color from kragen

 

There is actually paint out there called "trim paint".

Comes out pretty nice.

 

what paint depends on what finish you want, if you want a shiny oem colorpaint then you have go to spray gun route, if you just want a matte/semi matte black then just use a rattle bomb

sem make a sick **** interior rattle bomb 10buck a pop

 

yeah im just looking for a matte black to rejuvinate my fading trim and bumpers.

 

Here's what I did using Kylon Fusion for plastics. All I did was wash all the dirt off and let it dry before I sprayed it on. I like the results. My trim was all scratched up and faded before. I did probably around 2-3 thin coats. I'm still letting it dry for now. I'm not sure if I need to clear it or anything. Hopefully it won't flaked off

 

scuff with red pad. then dupont plaStick. and then ill add some flex to my primer/base and clear

That doesn't look to good. Its too shiny, and in some spots more than others.

 

do you guys think I need to clear these after using Krylon paint for plastic? I went over it with my finger tips yesterday and I get some of it on my finger. What can I do?

 

I work at a body shop and this is what we use

same here man, looks great

 

says it's for exterior trim though. Does it work well with interior trim?

 

yeah, works with exterior trim

 

Yes, use SEM Trim Black. They even have a specific color called "Honda Trim Black". Forget duplicolor, krylon, and all those....SEM is top notch stuff.

 

where can you buy that sem stuff? all i see at local auto stores is krylon and other cheap paint. ive had bad experience with krylon

 

You need to go to a place that sells automotive paint - NOT autozone/advance. Check SEM's website to locate a dealer near you.

 

you should go try plastics dip is the best thing out there, go look up on it...
Multi-purpose air dry, synthetic rubber coating that can be easily applied by spraying, brushing or dipping. Plasti Dip resists moisture, acids, abrasion, corrosion, skidding/slipping, and provides a comfortable, controlled grip. It remains flexible, stretchy and will not become brittle or crack in extreme weather conditions
