Car Forum / Honda Cars / July 2007Suggestions for refinishing Civic placstic hub caps
I have a 95 Civic and the finish is coming off the plastic hub caps. Anybody have any real good ideas on how to refinish them so the look nice again? > I have a 95 Civic and the finish is coming off the plastic hub caps. > Anybody have any real good ideas on how to refinish them so the look > nice again? Yeah. Buy new ones.

Let them cure fully before re-installing them on your wheels. You could use metallic paints,metal-flake paints,hammertone paint.....

I'm not familiar with these and possibly a source for such things via the internet? I'd like to give this a try. >>> I have a 95 Civic and the finish is coming off the plastic hub caps. >>> Anybody have any real good ideas on how to refinish them so the look [quoted text clipped - 8 lines] >familiar with these and possibly a source for such things via the >internet? I'd like to give this a try. Go to a regular paint store and get primer for plastic. Try "Bulldog Adhesion Promoter" from the Wal-Mart auto paint section. |
