Default Re: Roll bar painting question?

I sprayed mine when the car was apart with Sikkens 'Rally Black' with an epoxy primer underneath. The interior was completely out and the car wasnt painted yet made it real easy, if you dont want to totally dismantle the car rustoleum or trem-clad areosol or brushable would work well. I have painted many rollbars professionally and the masking up the interior is a HUGE pain in the rear end! The Sikkens 'Rally Black' also comes in a 'spray bomb' and its shine is exactly the same gloss as factory chassis and underhood paint. The prep of the bars is the most important, lacquer thinner or a wax and grease remover (engine cleaner is the same thing), a red scotch brite pad, another wipe down and its ready for paint. As a side note spray bombs or non- catalized paints are no where near as tough as hardened paints.
