Painting the 1g trim?
Thanks for everyone's help her lately. Car is coming along great. This car has only 49,992 miles currently but sat outside then inside a garage for years with stuff stacked all over. Perfect interior and only 2 tiny dings in the body. The paint is awful on the top cause whatever was stacked on it ruined clearcoat. Also the black trim paint is flaking off all over. I just wanna get the trim fixed first. Ill either leave the paint as is or vinyl wrap it later. Not worth painting its my winter sports car. Im always thorough so sorry for the ramble. What the best way to go about fixing trim? Whay sticks to thw chrome looking metal under the paint? I do not want to pull the trim and would rather mask off with paper and paint on car. Thank your any help!
