Hey Guys...
I have a nice set of Koni Red Rear Shocks that I want to paint... Should I blast them with soda, walnut, sand, etc. before I paint them? Or just scuff them up with sandpaper and paint? Is Chevy Orange Engine Paint the closest match to Koni's factory color? Thanks, Steve |

Chevy orange is similar to tangerine, Not sure about koni color as I havent pulled my fronts in a while but I would say "maybe"
Not sure about blasting either, Personally I would go with a good sand, maybe some rust protection primer and paint. |
