not good...

thats why i was considering epoxy. my hobby is boat restoration and i use it alot there. im usually covering fiberglass but it has to be flexible and very durable.

guess i would just have to try it...on something else...lol

its gonna be in the lower 70s for the next cpl of weeks so i may go ahead and do it.

 

nope....i used a paint specific to plastics and prepped it all real good. i took the top and bottem pieces off to do it, didnt wanna risk getting it on the chrome of the bumper. It's all in the prep, if its not prepped right or painted with the right kind of paint it will chip indefinitely

 

krylon has a paint for plastics, miami used the white for his taillights and its a good match, you can get it at autozone

 

[offtopic]That is a great looking truck...

Now back to your regularly scheduled programming.

 

rhino lined mine

 

Alabama Ram...
You'd want to use primer /paint specificly for flexible plastic body parts. Since you work with fiberglass you already know prep work is 90% of a sucessful job.

After pricing the paint out and my time, (plus a new spray gun) I ordered a black lower fascia off of Ebay.

 

i like the way the rhino liner looks...however, i am street 90% and im not looking for utility.

i actually have a pretty sweet primer that i use that permanently bonds to almost any rigid pourous surface and then provides a perfect medium for almost any paint. you use MEK after you clean the plastic and then use SEM etching primer.

im not too worried about the cracking--peeling, more worried about 70mph bug splats and the scrubing to get them off. splattered insects arent really a consideration on a boat...lol.

 

could someone just take the bumper to a place that does lineX or rhino and their spray will cover everything without prep?
