If I were to spray paint the outside of the roof panel, anyone have experience with what brand and "shade" of black (satin, gloss, flat etc.) might most match the original look, or any other comments on this process?

McMark here does the finest roof restorations I've ever seen. Basically spot on perfect.
If you just want to re-spray yours, use a semi-gloss "automotive" paint vs. rattle-can. That said, most automotive paint stores will mix you what you want in a 2K can with hardener built in. You turn the key at the bottom of the can and it releases the hardener into the paint. You basically have 24 hours to use it. They cost around $15.00 - $20.00 but well worth it. You can show them the sheen you want and they can customize the glossing agent as well. |
