Use self-etchimg primer as was mentioned in the thread I quoted. Rustoleum and Krylon have aerosol cans of it at Home Depot and other hardware stores. Brake cleaner or acetone and a cloth will remove the printing on the aluminum.Ok so if I go this route do a I just use any old primer and paint from Home Depot?
If I decide to leave the aluminum under armor bare, how do I get off the writing that comes off the skids atleast the ones you can see like the writing on the gas skid, does that just scrub off
Make sure to strictly adhere to the time between coats of paint instructions on the paint cans. Spraying 2nd,3rd, etc. coats too soon or too late will cause the paint to craze/wrinkle.
Also there's no real need to paint aluminum here in California. I kept my Savvy aluminum corner guards, and rocker guards unpainted.
This is my previous TJ.
