Painted SS mirrors

[ZNA03]

Well at the show last weekend I decided my mirrors looked like crap and needed at least some sort of coating... so I went to pepboys and bought some duplicolor paints and some sandpaper and got to work.

I bought some 3M finishing sandpaper and for paint used: Duplicolor Primer, Duplicolor Universal Black, and Duplicolor Top Clear Coat

Masked off the actual mirror by taking a sheet of paper and traced the mirror face down to make a cover... then i cut it out and taped the mirror up so i wouldnt get any overspray.

Then after sanding I did my painting overall time with waiting in between coats was about 2 hours. Probably could have waited a little longer but whatever :tup2:


How I set them up to be painted:
