painting euro bumpers

[ioverholt@hotmail.com (Ian Overholt)]

Just use the cheap stuff you find at your FLAPS.  I ended up with some 
Bulldog Adhesion Promoter for the primer layer.  I think I used 2 coats of 
that.  The paint I used was some store brand flexible bumper paint.  I have 
had no peeling of the finish.

My bumpers had been painted before, so I had to strip them with this citrus 
paint remover stuff I got a home depot.  It was kind of a gel that you 
spread on and let it sit for 10 minutes then just scrape it off.  Obviously 
you can't use just *any* paint stripper because some of them will eat the 
plastic.  This stuff was in a plastic container, so I figured it's got to be 
better than the stuff in metal cans!
