Default Fixing windshield/ dark and black shields
hey guys, posted once on this before but the title was pretty broad..

so second time around haha, i bought a used klock works from a buddy of mine but some of the black paint on the backside has been rubbed off. it looks pretty bad when your looking at it and was wondering if its possible to spray paint the backside of it? has anyone tried this? or would it just crack n peel off again anyway? thanks

Only way to know is to try it, they do make a paint that is supposed to adhere to plastic.

Autozone has a spray on window tint for glass and plastic. you can make it as dark as you want based on how many coats you put on.
