‘71 grill refinishing

[popslavaz]

Painted the silver on the grill yesterday.I used Krylon Fusion metallic shimmer and could not be happier.Will wait till fully cured mask and put the black on it.
What a huge improvement,it had about what looked like 10 coats of black on it.The guy at Proteck Coatings here in town turned down his blaster and did a near perfect job on cleaning it up.Wet sanded with 600 and painted it.

Looks good, pops. If my memory is correct, they were solid black(?) and painted Argent silver around the bottom if it was a RR or something. I remember it's a pain to mask them for the 2 colors but take your time and it will be fine.

One year only ’72 grille is a different beast as far as color goes.
