I have just completed a similar project on a Ford Focus textured parts .. I scuffed everything with a maroon scotchbrite pad and scrubbed it well. Next was adhesion promoter followed by three coats epoxy primer filler. Sanded with 180 and then 400.. Painted with two coats of two pack 4 to 1 JET black gloss. Looks fantastic
Great detailed video 👍🏼 I’m getting everything ready to paint the plastic trim around my Model X , I just don’t know if I’m doing Glossy black on the trim or color match it to pearl white
You think I would be able to do this process with all the fenders and trim on a Honda element? Been dying to paint my panels and fenders but don’t want the texture popping thru
Absolutely, this will work with any textured plastic pieces, you can also spray them with primer surfacer after sanding and sand them smooth the next day with 320 & 600 grit again before spraying your sealer, paint, and clear just to be certain it’s nice and smooth, but you can do this process that I did here to skip the primer surfacer, hope this helps!
Hey man just subbed to your channel! How much paint would you recommend for all the black pastic trim pieces and mirrors on a 2019 f250? For doing colormatching.
@@og_muddi5587 thanks for the sub!! It all depends on the color, if you have white paint going over white sealer it covers very fast with it already being white, same with black or gray, but typically a quart or so would work, I mix all my paint 1:1 so it equals out to be 2 sprayable quarts
Any issues with the paint sticking on or peeling? Since it was done on texture plastic. Want to paint the texture plastic to match my vehicle. But the bodyshop said it can't be done.
@@hectorruiz1291 no issues at all either painting textured plastic, body shops won’t do jobs like that mainly because they only do collision and insurance claim jobs, you’d have to find a small business or local paint guy to do stuff like this unfortunately, as long as it’s done right you won’t have any peeling!

Thanks for the support! I would def go color matched pearl white if it was my car #colormatchtheworld
How do we remove the paint?
We’re are you located? I’m having trouble finding someone who paints textured plastic. I’m wanting fender flares painted on a 2022 at4 2500.
