Painting side mirrors
My side mirrors are kinda faded and chiped, and i decided to paint them myself. Can anyone recommend what to use to paint the side mirrors black like stock? and what else do i need like prime, clear coat etc.
use dupli-color paint. it works great i've had a lot of experience with that brand. remove the side mirrors before doign any paint work. then mask off the glass so u dont get paint on the mirror. sand it down so that theres no more paint on it (400 grit sand paper) then clean it..primer...sand a bit (800) primer again..sand a bit...then put some layers of paint on it. afterwards, apply 1-2 layers of duplicolor clearcoat..wait to dry..and apply rubbing compound so that the clear and paint blend in nicely. wax after and install
should cost u like $15 for 3 cans of paint good luck
