Bedliner Spray-on Grill (1 Viewer)

[Nikolai75]

I have a 1985 FJ 60 with a chrome grill. I want to have it spray painted black, possibly with Bedliner spray. Has anyone done this and what were the results? Thank you for any feedback.

The way I plan on doing mine is to strip the peeling chrome off with bleach or some sort of acid, sand and prep the base plastic, 2k paint and clear

Blacked out grill!

rubber welting According to someone else on this board, you can get a black rubber welting to replace the chrome. He said the size was 14mm or 9/16" locking strip.

I haven’t done any chrome, however I have done many aftermarket bumpers, they turn out well. The key is to use a Schutz gun to get a consistent spray, and once done, use a rattle can with high-gloss black paint, it won’t look painted, but the Bed liner will have some really good definition to it.

I sprayed mine with Raptor Line, I used two Aerosol cans. I just sanded an everything down to scuff up really well, especially the chrome. Then two coats of primer and sprayed. The key is to follow their instructions exactly, they have videos on line explaining everything. I sprayed mine about a year ago, and has held up great, granted it’s not my daily so not a ton of miles. But I also used same product on sliders I put on 2 years ago, same results looks great hand has held up to foot traffic great.

We need a picture of this chrome grill before you go spraying it!
