Default Re-Textured black trim pieces

Here are the final product shots of my interior pieces. man all i can say is I will NEVER use SEM spray bombs again. Both the texture and clear clogged like Mofo's AND i had 2 dud texture cans where they just srayed out flat black... Once I got good ones and cleaned the tips after every coat it worked pretty well. Oh well, Real spray gun next time. I will try to edit this and add the part 3's of the products used:

SEM Texture Coating, Part # 39853

SEM Satin Gloss Clear, Part # 13010

Grey scotchbrite pads

Tack cloth(s)

Respirator ideally, particle mask at VERY LEAST.
Optional plastic Adhesion promotor..( I did not use this at my painter buddies advice. Didn't use it when i went silver and never had issues either.)

Check them out and LMK what you think, It was all silver(matched to the exterior color), Now i am going chaste white so i went back to black. yeah i said it!!













Did the tails a couple weeks ago. Had some circles cut at a sign shop. I still have a bunch left over that i am willing to give to anyone wanting to do the mod. just pay USPS stamp

Well that's all for now. I have been out from back surgery for about 6 weeks now. This is all I have been able to do so far. bad news is I have to have the surgery again as the disc re-herniated due to them giving me Morphine and making me heave for hours immediatly after ,causing it to burst again. Oh well. Lifes a bitch and then the insurance denies the second surgery,... no kidding BAH!! At least i have my GF and my 7's. Thanks for your help.

Later, Dave

Texture looks great Dave!

I feel your pain regarding back problems. I herniated my L4 around two years ago and I still have pain/complications to this day. I can't bring myself to surgery though.
I wish you the best on your upcoming surgery.

Scott

Haha!! Yeah I just polished them and carried it over there. Didn't see that till i posted it.

Thanks for the comments on the interior pieces and support on the surgery. Trying to take it all in stride.

At least I have plenty of time to fix little things and plan the bigger ones. Currently fixing wiring issues with the radio and windows.

I'll post more when i get the pieces back in the car.

Dave
