Blacking out

Before I black out my truck, I need to know what to get to black out my truck, sand paper, paint etc

I want to black out my wheels, bullbar, side steps and lights

 

Just get a fine grit of sand paper... something to where the paint can cling on to. (emblems)

I got some primer+paint for plastics.

Metal..... we went over this while I was in Home Depot last week

 

krylon fusion for plastic in black for emblems.

oh btw, good luck! black ftw

 

what about for chrome like my bullbar and side steps

 

sandpaper and metal spray paint

 

the monkeys do it!!!!!!!!!!!

 

like rustoleum

 

yeah... or Krylon(sp?)

 

get the nfab steps!

 

how much are those?

 

i think 350. sell ur steps and save up for the difference. the nfab steps are black soo it looks sick to me. unless ur going to get sliders

 

scotchbrite works great for the emblems, and BHLM

 

another suggestion is bedliner..

i used bedliner on my skid plate and it came out great, doesn't scratch, doesn't chip...

i used plasticote textured bedliner that i picked up at walmart, it comes out a satin black color and will be textured so it won't look smooth and shiny..

otherwise i think you'll have a loosing battle with rock chips... with the bedliner it should be one and done

 

Did you use a brush-on or spray on bedliner? I was thinking about using something like a Herculiner brush on bedliner for sliders and bull bar, but wasn't sure if it would come out as good as a spray-on...

 

get 600 grit sand paper

 

bradley,

i used a spray can, but i knew going in that my skid plate isn't looked at all that much, but it came out looking fine... it's like a spray can on roids, you need to keep the can back really far to get nice coats, just follow the instructions on the can..

good luck!
