paint coming off black bit on front bumber

[tomgarrett]

as the title says i have the black paint coming off the bumber on the fron of my VTR, what touch up products could i use to repair this??

[cj_99]

touch up pen????

[tomgarrett]

would it cover it up well? or would you be able to see where you have touched it up??

[mtpagey]

cause the paints flaked off, your basically missing one (or more) layers (s) of paint. a touch up pen will put paint back on where it has flaked off but you're almost certainly still gonna see it imo.

any pics? unless you get the bumper/area re-sprayed your still going to see the difference i think. plus the colour match of the pen to your paint may not be 100%

i'll get pics up tomorrow when its light, but they flaked off right to the white part of the bumper and i cant understand why....do you know of anyone else who this has happened to??

[tomgarrett]

matt balck sparay paint? dont quite think a "touch up" will quite do it, take the bumper off and respray all of it, or just buy a new one there quite cheap.

[tomgarrett]

haha theres not much chance of me respraying it, it might be the perfect excuse to get it colour coded

looks like the bumpers been re-sprayed before m8. the grey bits on mine are just plain plastic, no paint at all on them. just use some mat black spray, or some satin black to give it that just polished kind of look.

[tomgarrett]

no they havent been resprayed before, the black strips all over the car are like that

[stuchad]

sounds like all the black plastic has been painted before mate, thats what the pic of the bumper looks like anyway. sorry man
