Re: [Amc-list] was Shipping Alberta now painting grilles

["Armand Eshleman" <aje1@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I've got a couple of 70 Javelin AMX dash panels. I believe they're made from
the same plastic (ABS) as the grille. I'm going to try the paints on the
back of them before I try them on the grille.
Thanks for the reply Mark,

Armand
