Hi,
Has anyone come up with a suitable paint to replace the satin look grey paint used round the Bx door window surrounds? Mine has faded and in some places is almost white!

I looked at this too, and thought, "Hmmm - I've buggered mine up then, respraying it with Dupli-Colour Satin .............."

Seriously, that's all it is as far as I can see. A warm Saturday afternoon, a roll of masking tape and some 600 wet & dry saw the car looking much nicer.

Edit: If you're going to respray it, be careful you don't use something too 'hot' like cellulose - as the substrate'll wrinkle. (Please don't ask me how I know this)
