    Bull Bar painting

    Hi Guys
    Anyone ideas on painting a bull bar on a Patrol? Type of paint, prep, etc.
    Sorry if this is not the right forum for such a topic.
    Thanks

    Powder coating is the best, but was out of my budget, so I gave mine a rub down with wet and dry
    And gave it several coats of

    Leaving plenty of time between coats and it turned out like this

    That looks amazing! Thanks for that.
    Powder coating is out of my price range too, at the moment. :-)

    I thought about Gloss black but I read a few things about head light glare etc so I chose the Satin.
    How do you find the gloss on yours Kat?
