Pierre Rivard Posted December 30, 2021 Share Posted December 30, 2021 This looks most promising. What do you plan to do for the white over red plastic challenge? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moparfarmer Posted December 30, 2021 Share Posted December 30, 2021 I've found that even before primer shoot some silver colored paint..I use Duplicolor Perfect Match Toyota/Nissan silver..Then primer..Silver somehow keeps the bleed through away..
