Painting exterior trims

Post by Cornish Aids »

Hallo, quick question really - Not trying to sound like a lazy man but well... I am. Is there any way of painting my exterior trims without removing them from the car? as in maybe a non-spray paint I could use?
Thanks,
Aidan

what do you class as exterior trim? bumpers and arches? best bet is to remove them, only a few screws and bolts and nuts hold them on

Yep, bumpers, arches and door strips.
Like I said - I was just being lazy really :P

What about the door strips? I'm not planning on removing them...

if you don't want to remove the side trims mask up the side of the car and spray them with them on ;)
