people who painted their snouts

[gotboost3]

did you guys sand down the coating on the snout or just clean and paint it?

[Bio248]

to make it stick better you SHOULD sand it down a little, but you could just clean it up and paint it. just make sure you arent using some crappy paint that will just come off.

Sanding that snout is a Biiiiiiiiiitch!

[BillBoost37]

Yes, the best way is to polish then clear powdercoat it.
