1010C Paint Question?

Post by bighamlin » Mon Dec 19, 2005 9:53 pm

I have 3 of the side emblem plates that go on each side of the hood. I have carefully worked out any dents, sanded out any scratches and steel wooled the edges and letters that are to be shiny aluminum. My question is, does anyone know if the black background is to be flat, matte, semi-gloss, gloss, or whatever? I just can't tell by looking at the color pictures I have and I want to get it perfect, so any help is appreciated.

Thanks
Paul

I am not sure, but would guess semi-gloss or gloss.

I took alook at mine they look like a satin black finish they are stock and never been repainted . The previous owner brought them to me 4 months after I aquired the crawler.

Thanks - cause I am not a paint expert. I think I will try out the sugestions on a piece of scrap aluminum.
