stevenva Posted September 22, 2011 Share Posted September 22, 2011 I just freshened up my grille by spraying the black portions black. It was chipping in areas and looked bad with my new paint job. It's still taped off and I'm going to clear coat it to provide extra protection. The car is grey. I have a can of matte and a can of gloss. This will be done tonight. Which should I use.

I Donated broknindarkagain Posted September 22, 2011 I Donated Share Posted September 22, 2011 Do gloss with a layer or two of clearcoat. Thats how I did mine and it looks awesome. Flat will look kind of stupid -broknindarkagain My Current Project - Click Here COME AND TAKE IT "The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing."

Did you know that the 5 star Subaru center emblem is just held on by double sided tape. It polished up like new using Colgate Total toothpaste.

TexasLegacy2.5GT Posted September 22, 2011 Share Posted September 22, 2011 With that paint job I'd go with the Gloss over the Matte. If you had the car all matte I'd have done it matte to match...if you go for the all murdered out look. Just sayin' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can also use the headlight restorer stuff.....or wetsand it with 2000 grit and polish it with scratchx -broknindarkagain My Current Project - Click Here COME AND TAKE IT "The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing."
