Fender Flares...again...

Hey gang!

Just thought I would share my weekend project results with those that are
always looking for some way to refresh those tired and faded fender flares.
I know Bill...real Jeeps aren't supposed to have them, but mine does...lol.

I decided to try the new Fusion Spray paint that is supposed to be for
plastic. I bought 2 cans of satin black, a container of oderless mineral
spirits and had at it. Took most ofthe afternoon, about an hour per wheel.
Removed the flares, scrubbed down with soap and water, dried, adn then
cleaned with the mineral spirits. Let them set for about 15 minutes then
applied the paint. It goes on really well, no drips or runs. Let them dry
for 20 minutes and put on a second coat. After that dried re-attached to teh
Jeep.

I gotta say, they look really good! The test will be how long it lasts.

Stay safe!
