Conditioning the black plastic.

I painted the bed caps and rear window surround on my 97'. Those that have ever had a 97 know how bad the surround is about turning almost white. I wiped everything down with paint thinner and then sprayed with Krylon Fusion Gloss Black (Satin and Flat black were not available at the time). This was in 2003 and when I wrecked the truck, the caps still looked as good as the day I painted them.
That's just way to much effort. I just snapped mine off, sanded and clear coated. Screw all that taping but good effort...lol
