Rattle Can Weekend

Decided to paint the rear bumper this weekend. The bumper had been painted numerous times by my gramps, so I decided not to strip the many layers off. Just sanded, scraped and treated the rust spots with Permetex rust treatment and painted it with two rattle cans. Took about 6 coats. Also painted the voltage regulator while I was waiting for the bumper to dry.

From sanding to dry paint was about 2.5 hours.

After
