I know you said, you already had it...but be cautious with the duplicolor...it is a cheap product and does not last.

It wants to wear fast, and it using there clear...it yellows bad.

Look or SEM trim black, it is a great product. Some use the krylon with good results as well.

You can also do BULLDOG, which is an adhesion promoter as well, this along with SEM last forever.

if I paint a car and only replace part of the black plastic I take a heat gun to the old stuff. it will pull the color right back to the top. then hit it with a coat of wizards

Jerry....i did exactly that....hit it with heat first....then paint

As far as the duplicolor being a cheap product i will x2 on thier clear coat. The bumper and trim paint held up great for me.

Be careful using a heat gun on the parts with raised areas like the running boards. I tried it and although results were ok on the flat areas, the places with raised patches looked worse after heat. It turned them lighter instead of darker.

Preciate the advice....i only used it on the door handles and mirrors
