Next what I did was get a few sheets off sand paper. Grit lever 800 and sanded down the chrome pieces that I will be painting.
Should look something like this when sanded down a bit. Sanding it down makes the paint stick better.
I used Tremclad High Heat paint in flat black.
First coat. Make sure to only use precious and light sprays so you dont get any paint running. First coat.
and after 3 coates.
I went about 20 min in between each coat or until you can see that its dried quite a bit. Left the final coat for about 2 hours.
Once that was done I used calliper paint in yellow to do the High-beam section. I painted the highbeam because I dont do a lot of highway driving anymore and plan on doing a retrofit and making the high beam a projector.
The yellow paint I used.
Putting newspaper and tape arounf the housing and projector. Make sure the projector is well covered.
When we finished painting it.
And done.
We only did a light paint over the headlight so it would still sparkle.
