Just don't get too close and let them cool before you touch them. Also helps if they are scrupulously clean before you start.
There are other tricks if you don't get any joy with the above but chances are it should

Yeh.... If there not clean and you clean them after itll have spots of grey. You could use a blow torch bit its over kill and bumpers melt quick
