Done..... Thanks for the info... The looked vertical to me so I don't know why they were horizontal for you.

Are you using a Mac? I have a Mac, and the gang taught me to hit return after each pic.

Looks amazing. I am definitely gonna do it.

How did you like that sprayer thing?...much overspray?


and what did you do about your mirrors? I too have mirror covers (Carbon Fiber)

I really liked how the Preval Sprayer worked overall. It gave the tint a nice, "smooth" appearance compared to wiping it on with a terry cloth on the first coat. I would suggest doing the first coat as I did and using the sprayer for the second as you don't want to have to put a lot on with the sprayer as to prevent runs of the dye.

As far as overspray, yes, there is some. You can see in the pics. that I used 2" painters tape around all of the areas I was going to spray. There was still overspray above the tape, but just use Mineral Spirits and it comes right off. I would still use the tape so that you do not have to get close to the cladding with Mineral Spirits when cleaning up, or you could just use plastic above the tape. I think it was quicker just to clean up afterwards with mineral spirits.

Didn't do anything with the mirrors yet.... I'm thinking about painting them body color (at least where the chrome mirror covers are not), but not sure yet.

P.S. I used two entire bottles for the cladding and half moon for two coats.... Just an FYI for anyone looking for usage.
