Did you strip the old paint?

No used scrubbing bubbles cleaner and a red scotch brite to clean them , rinsed with water real good , blow dry with air , applied paint , then used a heat gun to cure it a bit. Let sit for a couple of hours then installed them. No need to try and remover the factory paint , would be more hassle than benefit.

I'm curious - Why Scrubbing Bubbles? I have heard of a lot of different cleaners being used to prep for paint but this is first I've seen Scrubbing Bubbles.

BTW - I think the covers look great.

Scrubbing bubbles is one of the best cleaners... even for leather seats

Interesting - - The things I learn from the gaggle of fraggles that hang out on this forum.
