Since picking up this truck, the rattle can sprayed black, chipping, peeling, blue underneath and black under that headlight buckets were triggering me.
Since I had the day off and it was raining too hard to rebuild the grape arbor I did something about the damn headlight bezels.
Leftover Ppg base coat in Dodge light driftwood metallic with a splash of hardner makes a very appealing option to argent color. Have used the remains of this paint for a few bumpers and wheels over the years.
A little one hour scuff n spray took about 4. the SEM primer kept eating the old paint on one piece, but not the other one, weird...cheap azz spray paint I suppose. When cleaning with lacquer thinner both the black and blue came off on the rag easily.
anyway looks better than it did.
