    I just scuffed it up with some extra sandpaper I had laying around. I think it was 200. Then I gave it a coat of adhesion promoter, 2 coats of Duplicolor Gloss White (DA 1670), and 2 coats of clear.

    This doesn't help anyone but the Super White owners, but here's how well Duplicolor Gloss White with extra clear coat matches:

    Looks good! But you should of washed your truck before you painted your bumper haha. Now you have to wait till the paint drys fully. But it matches really good. :cool:

    Do you guys think using a small orbital sander would be a good idea? Or just elbow grease? Trying to guess how much to "scuff" the chrome off.....

    Good job it came out great. I hope it holds up for you. I may do the same but with Line X or something like it.

    I didn't take the chrome off, I just roughed it up so that the paint could have bumps and ridges to stick to.

    Orbital sander will make it a lot easier for you. I'd use 80 grit to really get is scuffed up and 220 grit to smooth out the scratches.

    I'm not sure. Anything I've ever used adhesion promoter on, I've never used primer on. And vice versa.
