SuperWade2 Posted July 22, 2008 Posted July 22, 2008 Has anyone had any luck finding a good color matched spray... talking for a fairly small section...The lower flat black section of the XJ front Fender (under the trim) that I'm installing on the MJ once I figure out how to get it off (a couple badly stripped screws that I probably need to drill out). I know the color "match" is not going to be perfect, but something close and white will be better than a black section on an otherwise all white truck SW2
jtdesigns Posted July 22, 2008 Posted July 22, 2008 Get you a airbrush kit.. There cheap and you can use regular auto paint in them..
Motion Offroad Posted July 22, 2008 Posted July 22, 2008 That black section is actually a "tape" type thing. Pull the side molding off first, than if you use a heat gun you may be able to peal it all off, exposing the original white under it.

I think I have some of PinStripe Eraser left also I could try if that's the case... i was under the impression that the lower section was painted, but hadn't looked real close (as I still don't have the Fender off the truck yet...)

fiatslug87 Posted July 22, 2008 Posted July 22, 2008 I know you can of Xylene, that should take the tape residue off without harming the paint.
Sir Sam Posted July 22, 2008 Posted July 22, 2008 For repainting the lower trim just use flat black trim paint.
SuperWade2 Posted July 22, 2008 Author Posted July 22, 2008 For repainting the lower trim just use flat black trim paint. Cept I want all white, that screenshot is the doner xj. My mj is all white
