RE: [DML] Painting rear louvers

["Cecil Longwisch" <dmc1982@xxxxxxx>]

You do not want to use a flat or a gloss paint on your louvers. It is a trim 
satin with a patina that is somewhere betwen the two. I painted mine 
twiclast year because I was unhappy with the first outcome of patina. I 
wound up with a Sherwin-Williams paiint that was the right gloss. I went out 
and loked for the can however I aparently discarded it.

Just ask any auto paint store for the black trim paint. Try a little before 
you shoot the whole thing however.

Back on a technical track for the list for a while....I hope!
