Got a bunch of Savvy Aluminum parts coming in. Bumper just arrived today. I am not very experienced in regards to painting especially aluminum.
I was just gonna spray the under armor black to protect the aluminum. Is there a certain brand I should be looking at for paint? How about prep?
I am going to get the front bumper powder coated I assume that’s the better way to go for a nice finish?
Can anyone recommend a place in the Sacramento area? Is there a certain type of powder coat I need to do? Should I just paint it so i can touch up?
If I am taking the bumper to be powder coated should I just drop the gas skid and everything off to have it done then i could just touch up from there?
What about the sliders and Corner Armor I plan to have the aluminum color matched should it be powder coated first?
Should I not bother and leave some things Raw aluminum?
Anything else I might not be thinking about or forgetting?
See told you I don’t know much about painting!
Parts here or coming soon and color plan.
-Corner armor (color matched)
-Sliders (color matched armor, black slider)
-Front Bumper (Black)
-Under Armor (black)
-Engine skid (black)
