I am in the process of doing it right now. But I had to stop because the weather got really bad here in CA. Well I went to the auto paint store and bought SEM Trim Paint. Which is what I was told works the best. I also bought 400 grit sandpaper. All you have to do is sand it down a little then spray on the SEM paint. I will post on the board after Tuesday my complete process and how it turns out. I will be able to use a garage on Tuesday night so hopefully I can get it all done in one night.
