First couple steps -
The car came from the Palm Desert area, and living out there had faded some of the exterior plastics and the trim molding around the windscreen. See image:
So I masked the trim off with painters tape and lightly sanded any high and rough spots off:
I removed the painters tape, and applied 3M 471 trim tape as it is flexible and is made to be used to mask curves:
I then went back and applied painters mask tape outside the 3M tapeline and masked off the front of car. I cleaned the trim with alcohol (not acetone)
Then I simply painted the trim with a semi gloss black enamel from a spraycan in 3 coats. Done and on to the next project. Result in image
