davidv10 Posted March 29, 2019 Posted March 29, 2019 Im looking at painting mine. One quesion, how does painting them hold up? As obviously they have hands and fingers rubbing on them regularly, so wouldnt want the paint to fade/come off shortly after they have been done. i would just be looking at sanding them, priming them and then a satin anthracite to finish. As i dont want a gloss finish. any advice or experience to share would be good Quote

Make sure they are completely dry as well before driving as mine weren't the 1st time round. That's why they were done again... Quote

Mike k-g Posted March 30, 2019 Author Posted March 30, 2019 Are these handles difficult to remove/fit back? Quote
