So I got this bull bar from cl for 80. Good deal I think. It was black when the guy brought it and he painted it blue. Its starting to clip all over the paint. I want to paint it black. powdercoat witch i want to do is 140 for it. Dont have it lol. So painting is it. So Do i just sand it and paint. I have no idea lol. What kind of primer and paint would be best. Maybe use just Rhino lining spray. Its not like other things that going to just stepped on and have abuse. Enless i get front ended but thats it. What would be the best spray paint to use so it will stick well. Thanks

 

ha i kinda wanna see it rhyno lined. but if you gonna paint sanding it down will take forever but might be worth it if you have a dremel. other wise prep it right and use a good primer and spray it down. Eventually it will chip with wear and tear but then maybe you can afford to p.c. it or just paint it again.

 

allot of prep to get paint to stick , i would suggest rino line or PW coat

 

what kind of rhino lining would i use. Just the spray stuff and sand it first. would that be good? im kind of dumb at painting so all the infor would be great. Thanks

 

Ramhunter, what would be the proccess of rhino lining it. using the spray on stuff or the roller. would I have to sand it first right. what gritt sandpaper would work good. Thanks

 

yes to rhino it scuff it up with the most grit you can find . you can spray or roll it no difference.

 

i think the spray looks 10X better than the roll on.. at least with the rust-O-leum bed liner, i used the spray on my rims and rolled the bed and my toolbox, the rims look way better than the bed and box. much more even and uniform looking with the spray.

i would sand it down really good and make sure you clean it with acetone or a product called klean-strip prep-all

 

Ok thanks guys. I was at autozone like 5 mins ago and they had duplicolor truck bed coating black. says no primer needed only sand. Says it wont chip ir anything like that. plus its only 10 bucks for the spray can. the other liners are in a kit and use roll on and they go for 80. Would the duplicolor truck bed coating black work. Almost as same as the rhino lining right? Oh or I was told by a friend to use 200 gritt sand paper. What gritt would be the best. Thanks

 

200 or better , you really need to scuff it up , and i have never used the shaker can but that cheap might aswell try it .

 

the higher the number on the sand paper the finer it is...
