    dude the brushed aluminum is awesome on those! I cant find any company that sells them in the aluminum color, how many coats of the paint did u use and did u use a primer before painting? also did u sand alot before painting? I thinking about doing what you did for my own 3rd gen so just lmk

    • @Benji...
      @Benji...  Рік тому

      I used primer first and then tried a different colour so this has a few coats of paint. The matte clear made the biggest difference. Also yes sanded everything first to scuff it up

    Hey, how has the paint held up? Thinking of doing the same. Also, did you have to sand all the original paint out or did the metallic spray stick well into the original paint?
    Thanks

      paint is holding up well, a little bit of rust that was in one of the cracks seems to be bubbling up so should have sandblasted first i think
