I have two rubber front bumper tops. 1 is old, wavy and the ends stick out like wings on a Gulfstream jet.
The other is generally in good shape but might have been repaired and one end is grey and white like primer or patch. The wavy one is on now but I want to use the other one. What can I spray on it to get a nice even black color? Probably needs to be a paint for rubber, not a rub on restore product for plastic. Anyone use anything that worked. This car is not worth new parts right now. |

HI Tom,
I talked to a guy locally that had a shop and did restorations, he had a nice factory 6 he had restored ( I think his name was Steve, had a shop behind his house just north of Parker). His trick was to use rubberized undercoating sprayed thru a tube (like what comes with braked cleaner) to get the correct texture. The finished result looked very good. Here is the product he used. I have not tried it yet but you might practice on your crappy top. Attached thumbnail(s)
