Respraying metal wiper arms??
« on: 28 May 2011, 13:04 »
How is best to do this? Is it the same process as spraying other bits? Just normal primer and paint ok? Or is hammerite the way forward?

Just clean them up the best you can, 320grt paper should do the trick, a couple of coats of grey primer, the get hold of some Simoniz Satin Black aerosol, and not Matt Black and they will come out looking like new...
