Post subject: | Comptip refinishing question |
The comptip of '07 Getaway is showing a fair amount of wear & tear, the skin coat is chipping in many places. I plan to strip away all the loose & damaged material and then refinish with thickened epoxy (West System). On top of the epoxy, I would like to use some type of rubberized rocker panel/underbody paint or perhaps bedliner spray. Any recommendations? |

Flat black grill paint. I shot the comptip on my 1990 18 with a couple coats of it two years ago and it still looks good even after spending two summers in the sun. sm |

I used epoxy appliance paint for the comp-tip and rudders. So far so good. |

I've always been told that Vinyl spray paint is best, since it flexes. It also covers loose fibers. Sounds like there are many good options. |

I've used Krylon gloss black, seems to stay on pretty well, looks good after two years. |
