Painting badges?
Painting badges?
I was looking at the badges on the back of my car this week and they are starting to show their age and looking a little nasty... i was wondering if it is possible to remove them and paint them and put them back on? any know know how this is done? or if its a doable idea?
and while i'm on it... is it possible to dissasemble the wiper arms in the front so those can be sanded and repainted? cause they look horrid right now

dont know about repainting the badges, maybe you could just take a small paintbrush and redo them while they are still on
The wipers are easy.
lift the hood
pop the cap off the bottom of the wiper
12mm socket
you might have to pry them a little to get them off
sand and paint

sand it down using 2-3 steps of sand paper...
+make shure you prime it
+im going to use engine paint because its harder and can withstand all types of beating (the choice is yours)
+i would also clear coat it.. because this will be my 3rd tpme painting them over, and its not fun
+ make shure you tighten the bolts and place the wipers in the same position
