Probably a stupid question, I know lacquer is important as the top coat on bodywork painting, but how important is it on the bumpers? I'm a way off really spending money on modding the bodywork so in the meantime I'm just painting the black bumpers back to a nice fresh black, as 'back to black' does **** all after a few days. I've been told lacquer isn't important for this, thoughts?
what car? did mine with a few tins of simonize tough satin black, just make sure you clean well, rub down, plastic prime, rub down then paint light coats
Sorry thought it showed up on the left, corsa b '99, will do just that thanks!
You only need clear/lacquer if you paint basecoat. Normal black probably won't be basecoat.

99' corsa b, That will be colour coded bumpers then, Wouldnt recommend my idea then of satin black. More of a bodyshop job.
It's Matt Black, thats all I know.This stuff
Also, They're not entirely colour coded, I mean to paint the black plastic bits of bumper trim not the body colored bitsThis is just cheap and temporary before I do a proper euro style.
oh right, black plastic bits yes, dont use that stuff. use Simoniz "tough" satin black. you can get two tins of in on ebay for about a tenner
Nice one, will post results
