Bumperettes Painted

I finally got a chance to paint my bumperettes. Bought primers and paints from Automotive Touch up Paints. Project came out beautiful, even on a Metallic Slate color. Did the whole project for less than $50 delivered, with plenty of paint left over for future needs.
I used Adhesion promoter (3 coats), Primer (3 coats), then wet sanded with 1000 grit, Paint (5 coats), Clear Coat (5 coats). Put bumperettes in a cardboard box with a 40 watt lightbulb and let them cure for 4 hours, voila!
I'll post some pics once the sun comes out again. We haven't had rain all winter and now we actually are getting rain for the next few days, go figure.
