headlamp painting

Recommended Posts

ok so I sprayed my headlamps a sort of prima-like grey a while back.

 

Now the paint's bubbling.

 

No biggie 'cause I want them black anyway, but can anybody tell me what spray paint I should use that won't bubble from the heat?

The paint is most likely bubbling because you didn't key the surface enough, not because the paint can't take the mild heat.

I painted mine in Halfords Matt Black with a single coat of Satin Black over the top and they've been fine.
