RE: [DMCForum] Re: Engine Bay Touch Up



I just cleaned it with acetone.  No primer or anything.  I may have some
pictures on my site, but I doubt you'd be able to see anything in the
pictures anyway.  It is a semi-gloss black.  I think that is the only
color they have.

Hey Dave,

Will definitely check that.  What did you do to prep before
painting?  Did you put down a primer, sand etc?  I'd definitely like
to see a pic if you got one.  Also, do they have different colors? 
Like gloss black?  Or was yours more of a flat black or semi-gloss?

Thanks,

Brandon
