I saw pics of cars with black door handles and other chrome trim in black and was wondering what the best way to do this. I think powder coat my be to thick for the door handles, and dont knoe if paint will stick good to chrome.

From what I understand, disassemble it completely then scotch brite pad to scuff it.
I would think powder coat would be more durable however after any number of key unlocks, jamming the key into the cylinder might chip off some coat or paint. This summer I'm going black satin on all my chrome except bumpers, I'd like to see how yours turns out. |
