Post subject: | Painting Center Caps? |
Anybody ever do this? I was thinking of hitting mine with the yellow rattle can to go with the tow hooks until I can get lifted and get the AEV Bridgers. Comments? Suggestions? |

I've seen it done before, and I'd imagine its done the same way as painting the wheels. Clean thoroughly, Scuff up the surface, Prime, Multiple light coats of desired paint. -Ryan |

but remember is doesnt take as much sanding to get the caps ready to paint. They are plastic so maybe a paint that is designed for plastic would adhere better. |

I have used Krylon Fusion For Plastic with very good results. It states on the can "No Sanding Or Priming". I did both anyways! ![]() Terry |
