suitable black paint
Afternoon all
I'd like to get the bonnet vents fitted which I put off until after SVA. They're off a metro and could do with a good clean and a spray
of paint.
I'm after some advice as to the best type od paint to spray these in that's quite hard wearing and easy to clean. Oh and as it'll
need spraying before fitting, not prone to marking from me pressing on it with fingers etc.
They're made of high impact plastic. I was thinking a good wash, primer them up and use plasticote.
Any problems with that or something more suitable?
Cheers

Renault dealers sell Strupcoat which is for repairing the black textured parts of bumpers and trims. It has a light texture and is designed for
plastics - very useful stuff.
If you can keep you head, whilst all others around you are losing theirs, you are not fully aware of the situation

You can get plastic primer - it etches the surface a bit, which helps to keep it in place.
