What paint to use?

fox4.6 · October 27th, 2008, 09:20 PM

I just got a new set of air bas for my car, and I need to repaint them. What would be a good paint to use? Rattle can paint would be easier, but I do have the spray guns and everything. Also, ow will I need to prep them? I want to paint them either gray or black.

I think he's saying air bags but why would you paint an air bag?

Thats what i thought at first, but then said why would you paint an air bag?

Lets just collectively ignore him since he has poor spelling/typing skills.

if your talking about the metal plates on the ends of the bags, you can use a good quality spraypant I.e. duplicolor,etc. if you want it to last longer and the original paint/powdercoat is peeling take to bare metal and prime ir first. if the original is fine just sand it and shoot. you can aslo use automotive paint if you want. if it was me I would use single stage automotive paint as it will be more durable than spray paint but not as many steps as bc/cc.
