    I repainted my windshield trim. Looks A LOT better. It’s terrifying spray painting your Ferrari, I was worried about overspray but it turned out great. I used Eastwood 2k paint which has a hardener built in so it dries hard as a rock and should last a long time.

    Very nice, I always use "Bumper Spray" by MOTIP, a nice black mat , but on Goldfinger I used shiny black

    Thanks.
    I took a Q-tip and rubbed a few coats of gummi pfleg stift around the faded rubberized window sealant. The sealant literally drank that stuff up and it turned nice and black to match the painted trim.

    I rubbed it down with a scotch Brite pad and hit some rough areas with 800grit sand paper. Then used that Eastwood pre paint prep to wipe it all down.

    Cool. Not a huge job. I’m thinking it was 4-5 hours.
