I was thinking about painting the bumpers on my orange Hornet body color. I can't find a local chrome plating shop and don't trust sending a bumper half way across the country to an unknown shop never mind the shipping costs. I figured I might as well shave the bumper bolts too and remove those horrible looking big rubber bumper guards. There is a cemetery monument place right up the street from where I live that does sand blasting and I figure if I get them blasted clean and prime them with a self etching primer and the paint will stick alright. I will however add some Morton's Impact 200 to the orange paint.This is used when you paint urethane parts and lets the paint remain flexible and not crack. I should also make the paint more chip resistant on the bumpers. "Doc"
