i painted my chrome shell by myself in my garage with duplicolor paint to match my truck and all i did was prep it real well i sanded the whole thing with 400 grit i think and then used a adhesion promoter then clear primer and then color sanded again with 1000grit and color 3 coats evenly it looked great at this point so then i clear coated it and used a whole can for clear......then after a week i waxed it and voila! looks great still today and i did mine in july.....
