Yeah that's what I was worried about with my bumpers but the extra hour of setting up and priming makes a whole world of difference ! I like flat black on all cars and trucks just doesn't look good when it's all patchy !

Yeah it's going to get done right this time. We did it quick because I was debating on selling it unless I liked the way it looked a different color so it was a deciding factor. I ended up liking it so I didn't sell the truck. Now I just have to make it look good

That was the same for me I wasn't a huge truck fan then I started working on mine maybe to sell and ended up falling in love now I'm stoked to keep working on it !

I did a bunch of vinyl dying for some custom A/V installs. This stuff is the best, Krylon will not hold up like this stuff. It is what we pros use if we can't get the right colour of vinyl. It also doesn't rub off on the arm rests like the fusion paint does over time.
