Re: Restore my headlight bezels

My 1977 was all original and had argent. The problem with just spraying them is that the paint doesn't hold like the originals and flakes off. I am a body man by trade so I properly prepped them. The area to be painted was sanded, masked and then cleaned with wax and grease remover. They didn't last 2 months before the paint started flaking. My next option is to mask and bead blast the area to get some adhesion. I hope someone has found something easier that works!
