pillar painting
 
so i did all my back pillars in krylon fusion they worked out great, then i tried to put my front ones in and because it was a tight squeeze i had to kind of force them back in and the paint scraped up, any ideas on how to go about getting them in without doing it that way i mean it went through all my layers of clear and paint, so i was wondering about sanding them back down and using that vinyl dye any advice would help

and thats not even the worst of it thats as far as i tried getting it in so im sure it would be worse if i fully put them in

You could try to put some light tape over the places were it chips the pull it of aslong it dosnt pull the paint off or you might have to pull the headliner down!

irelandshemi 04-19-2009 10:42 PM

yeah i was gunna try that and im not too worried about the tape lifting the paint because i give it over a day to dry and all that but im worried about not being able to get the tape off then re having to do it and i had the headliner dropped yesterday but didnt help getting the bottom in

sharkhunter10 04-19-2009 10:52 PM

i didnt think about the bottom you might have to like place a bag over the end then try to pull it out at the end or cut it to were its not visible
(redneck way)

irelandshemi 04-19-2009 10:54 PM

ha yeah that might work, its killing me because everything is done but cant be put back in

Hey man, i did the same thing to my pillars. When I put mine back in they only scraped a little on the bottoms so I took some of the same paint I used to paint them with on a small brush and touched up the spots. You can't tell it now.

thanks, were yours really hard to get in as far as took some force, did you paint them with a gun or spray paint?
