GeoffD Posted May 13, 2013 Report Share Posted May 13, 2013 is there any paint that I could paint my c pillar trims with? I need to do a good job cos I don't want it looking like edd china's been out with his shaky tins, know what I mean?? I can use pro products ie paint that you use with spray guns if such stuff exists. recommendations please, tell me what you've used please . ta geoff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete91 Posted May 14, 2013 Report Share Posted May 14, 2013 I would just rattle can them. You can get a pretty phenomenal finish if you take your time and do it right. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skezza Posted May 14, 2013 Report Share Posted May 14, 2013 Do you lacquer them after rattle canning them Pete? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete91 Posted May 14, 2013 Report Share Posted May 14, 2013 Yeah a few really thin layers gives it a proper nice gloss. It was my dad that did some of my interior bits and they came out really well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Koop Posted May 22, 2013 Report Share Posted May 22, 2013 I think there was some confusion between B pillars & C pillars here The C pillars are easy to retrim, I did mine. In fact I used shitty carpet glue & they're still fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rich Posted May 22, 2013 Report Share Posted May 22, 2013 Just flock em.Peel the crap material off, get them down to just the foam and then the glue will stick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
