Re: Crusty Rusty Leaky Squeaky 67 Step

I had some bare metal parts I wanted to clear on my jimmy. I actually made my own version of the shadow chrome by just adding a few drops of black tint to clear and spraying it. For prep I cleaned the parts with soap and water. Went over everything with fine steel wool and/or a 3M scuff pad to get off any old paint overspray, rust stains, etc. I cleaned everything up with automotive paint prep solvent. Let that flash off a while, then sprayed the automotive urethane directly on the clean bare metal. I did the grill and so far it has been holding up pretty well.
