prep really well, take your time, prime really well, take your time, paint , take your time


yeah i used a hanger and hung the grill while i painted it. as for priming i did use a small coat of priming. then i use rustoleum silver as my paint cuz i wanted silver . did about 3 coats of that of , maybe 4 , i forgot, then i clear coated the crap out of it and i got a nice gray color to match the rest of my color. .

yup, hes right.

its just your basic painting job...

sand, prime, paint... i would even recommend a clear coat afterwards to protect the paint & all your hard work
