Most of the black trim is faded on my car and I want to repaint it. Stuff like rear view mirrors little peices of trim ect. Should i sand it w/a 200 gt. and paper and then let them shoot it? Im going to have a heavy car paint put on it, not spray paint.

I think at Pep Boys they have this stuff that you can paint vinyl trim with. Make sure that it is really dry before you put it back onto the car or it will chip.

 

Not sure but I know this works on the bumper, use a hair dryer. It also works on some of the trim, not all.

 

I've heard of using a heat gun to burn the surface of the black stuff and makes it turn dark again.

 

Try using a scuff pad to get just the top layer of stuff off and respray. Should work. Good Luck

 

i used this stuff called, "bumper black" that i got from autozone. Used it on my moldings, worked good.

 

i am doing the same thing, i have already done some of the trim and it works really good.

first i got this stuff from a paint store, it is a spray can of "plastic prep" then a can of "black bumper coat" both by the same brand name. then scuff up the plastic with a 3m pad. clean it with the plastic prep, let it dry, then paint lightly with a few sweeping coats. it looks as good as new.

 

Hey thanks!

O yeah where did you pick that stuff up from?

 

trim black spray paint

 

I would use a red scuff pad , grease & wax remove them and use a trim black , that u can get anywhere.

 

use BACK TO BLACK, you can find it at any discount parts place, its in the body care section at autozone which is where I got mine but it works like a charm
