Well only if you don't sand it down and then prime it, then yeh it can be a problem. Obviously if you sand it all off, then it shouldn't cause any problems. Its only if you paint straight on top, that it can flake off etc......I think?

yea thats it, if you leave it for around 2 weeks then take them off, sand them down with 800 or 1000 grand sand paper to get ALL the back to black off.
make sure they're sealed first tho, then primed and painted! Hope thats some help buddy

they will have to be degreased firstly to get off all the back 2 black and other products put on it, if not the paint will react with it and go all siliconey.

wash it thoroughly a couple of times and sand down well. cant stress enough how important it is to get all polish n other crap off. then prime in thin layers until its covered well, id personally do about 3-5 coats of primer just to make sure, but that might just be me smileys/smiley17.gif
