Well my first paint job i did in february didnt hold and i was experiencing chippin and peeling.
So.... Why not try again!!
I used 2 Days for this painting project
Day 1

THis is somwhat of a DIY for painting most of the plastics on your truck.
I did the Wiper Cowl, Door handles, Antena, and Mirrors
What I used


3 Cans of duplicolor Filler Primer
3 Cans of Duplicolor Self Etching Primer
4 Cans of Duplicolor Gloss Black
4 Cans of Duplicolor Perfect Match Clear Coat
Im Sorry i have no pics of the Removal but most of it is pretty straight forward
After disasembling I wiped the parts off with some paint thinner then washed them and set them to dry.


I Then started my sanding Process i Used 220 Grit Sandpaper



Next up is Filler Primer





After letting the primer dry for 30 minutes i sanded it down with 600 Grit Sandpaper


After sanding all the parts It is time for the Self Etching



DAY 2

After i let the primer dry it was time for the base Coat i used 3-4 Nice even coats

















After all those pics its now time for the Clear Coat i again did 3-4 even coats






I then let the paint dry for 3 hours then i started to re assemble the handles/mirrors and install them on the truck.
Antena

Wiper Cowl

Mirrors


I did get the handles assembled and put back on the truck but it got to dark to take pictures. I will make sure to take some tomorrow!

Thanks!
