Touch up paint - 7/17/2007 4:43:47 PM    Zenguitar   Posts: 7 Joined: 7/10/2007 Status: offline I have an 89 Daytona ES and it's black. There are places like the spoiler that have faded to blotches of white. I obviously want to geta whole new paint job done, but in the meantime, I'm thinking I'm going to at least shoot the whiteish spots a little. Should I get a glossy black or just a flat black? I figure anything's better than white but I want to minimize the gettotasticness :) Thanks so much. -Luc Post #: 1

If it's oxidized, save yourself the paint and get some rubbing compound and take the white "film" off. If the paint is faded (odd for just the spoiler) duplicolor makes a color matched paint in a spray can. One can should do the entire spoiler with several coats... (in reply to 1989daytona) Post #: 3
