Badges chipping

I did the black out badge mod.... its been about 4 months and the paint is starting to come off probably just strip them and leave them off, it was worth a shot!

 

Same problem with my chrome grill. I just repainted and am hoping for the best. Can't stand the chrome, maybe will just buy a black grill.

 

sorry dude

 

ha yeah, its all good... it will look good with no badges too.... ITS A TACOMA!!!

 

How many coats did you do?

I sanded mine then did about 6 coats. They are all fine. I used krylon fusion.

If you did the front one on th grill that will chip from rocks and stuff. On the front I would use a spray on bedliner like rustoleum.

 

I did about 3-4 coats with the addhesive. I might re-do them but might just keep them off too, I will re-do the front badge for sure, thinking metalic grey though change it up

 

I blacked out my grill emblem too. After about 3 months it's starting to chip from rocks.

I'll redo it soon, but this time...... spray on bed liner.

 

Atta boy! I'm about to do mine this instant!

 

Post a photo when it's done. I'd be interested to see it.

 

I'm going to do the emblem and grill in bedliner. If I don't post a picture by like 9pm pm me to remind me.

 

Here ya go:






Came out perfect!

 

Looks great! what bedliner did you use?? Brand and any certain type?

 

Rustoleum truck bed coating in the spray can. Like 8.99.

 

Looks good bro, did you also do your fender flares? Thanks for the info

 

Thanks. Yes I did those yesterday. 4 coats of the same stuff. I just sanded first with 200 grit. The grill is just temporary. Once I get a silver one I'm selling it.

 

dude nice, I used bed liner to paint the bottom center of my bumper along with the expanded sheet metal I used to do my $42 satoshi to keep it from rusting and chipping and that shit is tough!

bums dont even cause it to chip

 

I sanded then did 2-coats of duplicolor wheel primer, then 3 light coats fo duplicolor high performance wheel paint about 5 months later and no chips.

 

here ya go.

 

Nice......

 

@JDKELLER,
your grill looks great! I just sanded mine and getting ready to paint, but was unsure if the spray on liner would work on plastic. Looks like it does...any problems with it yet?
