Professional... what a joke! Call that prep? No primer, crappy soft and easily sun weathered acrylic rattle can paint.. paint overspray on bodywork! 🤦♂️ The correct way is to remove the trim, prep sand / key, then etch primer, 2 part solvent / epoxy based top coat.. as manufacturers do with gloss painted trims and plastics... before finally reinstalling.
Kudo's to you for answering all these repetative question's and also showing the reality of what happens with the jobs sometimes with the leaked masking. No big deal to clean up. Keep up the great work on the channel!
Awsome job and the video! My Q7 came with the chrome trims and I wanted to replace them but it's apparently a huge job so I'll paint them same way as you did
"Christmas project" 2006 BMW 330i update: Followed the step-by-step very carefully, including using the recommended paint, tape, plastic covering, etc. BE SURE you tape VERY carefully, especially on bright trim where it borders body-color painted surfaces. The overall results were OUTSTANDING! I only had to re-visit a couple of small places, and I, too, had some unintended overspray, easily corrected with solvent. I had never before painted on a car, so if a geezer newbie like me can achieve excellent results, you can too! I can't thank Midnight Paint & Body enough. A Merry Christmas indeed.
Looks amazing! Thanks for the how to video. What product did you use to initially clean off the chrome and what 3M grit did you use to prep sand? Thanks again.
I would have used an automotive wax&grease remover initially, and sanded with 320 grit. Just be sure to use a trim paint that specifies that it can be used on metal, otherwise may require etching primer
Wow! Amazing how much a small change can make such a big difference. The paint really does look factory. Have you done any videos on painting trim with chrome paint? Would the principles be basically the same as what you did here? And any recommendations on a particular brand?
I’ve never used chrome paint, but you just need to be sure what it’s formulated for, this trim paint is a direct to metal product, but if it’s not then it would require an etching primer first
Thanks for the helpful video, planning on painting the chrome trim on my accord black. Quick question, if my cars paint is already black would it be better to paint the chrome as the same paint code as my cars paint or use the black trim paint ?
Much better. One question though. Why no clear coat? (I'm looking to paint some chrome running boards on my new truck. I'm thinking I should probably use a clear coat as its going to be getting dinked by rocks and other debris as well as people stepping on them to get into the truck.)
Always depends what product you’re using, single stage paint is designed to be that, a single stage, but adding clear might add a bit of durability. Typically if it’s going to be taking a lot of wear, painting chrome isn’t the best option.
Wow this looks beautiful 😍 can I use a gold paint instead? My car is black and I hate the chrome, I was thinking either black or gold trim , what do you think?
Great vid just ordered the same paint to do mine! As far as the scotch brite what kind or grit did you use? I’m seeing fine 200 but want to double check. Thanks!
Here's my take on chrome trim chrome trim looks nice on old muscle cars from the 1960s and '70s but on Modern cars my opinion is they should be satin black, satin black trim just looks more refined and not cheap looking
Thanks, should last a long time, I did a follow up video on this car , and after 9 months, with winter driving, there were no chips or issues. I imagine like anything,just don’t dig at it with a pressure washer 😉
Thank you for uploading this. I was quoted around $200 to do this to my SUV but now I am getting closer to being confident enough to do it myself. Id like to change my front bumper trim (chrome) to a matte black. Do i just sand it the same as you did here? When I googled it some sites said to put chemicals on it to strip the chrome first. Is that really necessary?
Front bumper is a tough one, they take a lot of abuse, painted bumpers are prone to chipping regardless. I usually tell people the best route is to buy a paint to match bumper instead of painting the chrome
I did this and prefer the chrome rather than the paint (which I also clear coated). I used Duplicolor bumper black and duplicolor clear over it. Any tips on how to remove the paint and get back to original chrome trim?
I would use clear coat, it provides uv protection and helps the paint last longer, if you don’t use it the sun/car washing will eat through the paint faster
what did you use to remove the paint that got onto the body of the car? I plan on doing this and it might be a good idea for me to have some of that handy, lol.
Thanks for the video. Wish I would of saw this video before painting my trim. Question how do I get the paint off the trim due to the paint flaking off on certain areas?
Depending on what product you used, if it’s cheap spray paint you may be able to wash it off with laquer thinner, otherwise you’re stuck with having to carefully sand it off
@@Johnnymidnight I used SEM trim paint on my chrome trim and it's still flaking off. Pretty much immediately. Any tips as what else I can use to help the paint adhere and not flake off?
I tape the edge of the plastic to the car. If using plastic you need to use the automotive kind, one side is treated for the paint to stick to. If you use untreated plastic the paint will flake off. (Not a big deal using aerosol, but if using a gun it can blow off between coats)
looks nice! Ive got an audi a4 allroad with chrome grill that i want to paint gloss black. I think its aluminium coat with plastic under and not "real" chrome. What is the best way to paint it? Sand it a little bit then sand with water til the chrome gets a bit matte? Should i add 2K clearcoat so that it can take chemicals when i wash it? Thanks in advance.
Sanding really well is the most important, clear isn’t necessary if you use a formulated trim paint, but would add some durability, especially being the grille will take a lot of the road grime
You mean a clear coat? Depends on the paint, in this case it’s a single stage, matte finish paint, so no. If using a basecoat paint, then yes, but then would also require an etching primer first
I am painting the front grill, mirrors, gas cap door cover, and other chrome parts on my jeep. Does anyone have any experience long term? How does this paint fare especially on a front grill ?
Check out the follow up video I did on this one, grille will be a tough one, I usually recommend on grilles and front bumpers to buy paint to match parts
Not necessary if using a formulated trim paint. If just using regular urethane, you might want to use matte clear, and then an etching primer would also be necessary
Hello Johnny: just subscribed! Been trying to remove/ repaint trims. Wondering what specific scour pad you used, as well as the exact SEM trim paint you used? How is it holding up now? Thank you
I use the 3M red scotch brite, that’s the coarse one. Paint is SEM 39143 trim black, still, after going through 2 winters, it’s holding up beautifully 👍🏼
I am divided here. I am one who always loved black cars and black details on them, simple and black with an accent like red calipers. Sadly, it has become such a ghetto thing now a days that I am not sure I want it anymore. I mean, everyone is doing it.. I know it is nothing new.. but it has become extremely common now among douches lol I have a white car with black wheels, painted the calipers in red. I did a pretty good job I have to say xD and it looks really neat. Next I was considering to black out the trims just like this... white car with black trims looks very neat... but I am just 50% 50% about it lately.
I’ve had pretty good success with chrome if you sand it, coat it with epoxy or etch primer then paint. Pretty tough to get it to adhere 100% on a forward facing surface, like a bumper or grille that takes the rock chips though
Question; I work for a company that makes interior trim items for aircraft; the customer engineers who design the parts (Aluminum) want them painted. According to the prints and directions the parts have to be scuffed/brushed first, then go to get plated and then go to a painter. The paint keeps nicking off. I have tried to tell them the plating is to smooth for the paint to adhere well. Am I on the right track?
@@Johnnymidnight Thanks, I did paint and body way back in the 80's but no paint over chrome and such. I keep trying to tell them but you know how engineers can be.
So you did all that work. Making sure you don't get any overspray on the vehicle, but you didn't use any etching primer on the Chrome or any type of primer whatsoever and you used only trim paint with no 2K clear coat for protection. How many days did this last? Do you plan on driving it outside?
It’s a direct to metal product. Stainless is non corrosive, so it doesn’t need primer to protect against rust/corrosion. If it was regular spray paint it would need etch primer first.
Check out the follow up video on this car a year later, I explain the product in more detail. I don’t understand why everyone brings up clearcoat. This is a matte finish paint. Basecoat paint requires clear coat. Single stage paint is just that.
@@Johnnymidnight Wow! That was a fast reply If you're located in the prairies, can you do my front grill?? Would this sem product work on a chrome bumper? I have a black bumper except for the two corner caps that are Chrome. Unfortunately same with the back. I also have a chrome grill Which is plastic Chrome. Do you have any suggestions for an sem product?? Thanks
I have had success with chrome bumpers, sanding it really well with 180, epoxy primer and paint, but typically on a customer vehicle i recommended just getting a paintable bumper. For plastic chrome, make sure to use a plastic adhesion promoter.My shop is in BC
Yes, with plastic you’ll need a plastic adhesion promoter. I’ve actually made a follow up video on this to that I haven’t posted yet, to explain it better, but with chrome or stainless it doesn’t corrode, so primer isn’t necessary with this particular paint, it relies on mechanical adhesion, or sanding the surface so the paint can bond, hope this helps 👍🏼
Yes, grilles and front bumpers just won’t stand up. Rocks always win….. The only solution is to start with a PTM part (paint to match), but even then rocks are tougher than paint 😖
Great video! And you are working on your daughter’s car. Win win situation! You’re a good man and great dad! Thanks for sharing!
Thanks, she has since sold it and bought herself a Jeep, but in the shop as speak doing brakes with my son👍🏼
Awesome video. 90% professional prep work, 10% painting with the best stuff, as it should be. Got a new sub!

I’ve watched so many videos…Yours the best ! I’m saving and going to do it!
Thanks! Excellent advice and video. This will be my "Christmas project" on my '06 BMW 330i.
Cool dad alert. I'm sure your daughter was pumped. This is a great video, I feel ready to do all the chrome on my Volvo. thanks again!

Nice job, What did you use to get that overspray off?
Just a little gun wash solvent
Great job. But can I ask, why didn’t you use any primer? I’m thinking about doing mine but high gloss.
This paint is a DTM (direct to metal), if using conventional paint it would require an etching primer on stainless
Better than plasti did looks good.
I did this and prefer the chrome rather than the paint (which I also clear coated). I used Duplicolor bumper black and duplicolor clear over it. Any tips on how to remove the paint and get back to original chrome trim?
If it’s aerosol, then it’s reversible. Paint that isn’t chemically activated can be softened with solvent, but it’ll be messy
Great Job! Quick question though - what about clear coat? Shouldn't that be done too or is it not worth it?
Check out my follow up video on this one, I explain that better, but no, not necessary when you use the correct paint

hello will, the same method also work for any paint color, or would you only recommend this with black?
In this case, it’s a direct to metal paint, other paint will require an etch primer
do you recommend hitting this with a clear coat after?
Not necessary if using a formulated trim paint. If just using regular urethane, you might want to use matte clear, and then an etching primer would also be necessary
I have old spray painted peeling black chrome trim. Do you think paint thinner would take those off? Or how should I go about this
If it’s just spray paint, thinner should take it off, only other option would be sanding it off, very carefully
Do you not use any epoxy? Or primer etc?? Just sand no wet sand??
Yes, as long as you’re using a paint formulated for direct to metal, otherwise it would require etch primer. Epoxy isn’t great for stainless.
