I have used this with good results. They have bottles or spray cans. I bought bottles of primer, color & clear.

I use them also. Metallics are very difficult with a brush so I use an airbrush, then follow with clearcoat. But don't sand the basecoat if it's metallic.

Cool What Color is it?

Jaglearner.....

Pay Attention Here!

Use that good old Automotive Touchup spray Can paint down under the Grill.....Spray the whole darn thing real smooth like!! Let it dry good and then hit it with Clear....Lightly at first and then come back with a second coat.....Up around the Grill...Sides and across the Top I still use Dr. Color Chip....Full in the rock holes and smear it real good! Making sure the rock pit is full and let it dry.....Then come back over it with that clear stuff.....

I don't use the Spray Clear above the Grill......Mine is a 2005 and has the double grill.....Stay below the second grill with the Spray,,,,,,That is, unless you are a real Pro or think you are......
