Rich.2211 Posted January 25, 2013 Share Posted January 25, 2013 Just degreased mine and painted it satin black, looked like new and was pretty durable. I hit it with a jet wash a few times and it was fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sideexitsupra Posted January 26, 2013 Share Posted January 26, 2013 Before painting try some of that Armourall (Sp?) back to black stuff. Mine was looking very poor so tried this and it came up a treat. Car not used much and over 12 months later still looks ok. Might be worth trying a small area to see what you think as it will be a pain to remove it if you go down the paint route later. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dnk Posted January 26, 2013 Share Posted January 26, 2013 Water transfer printing could be the way to go Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
