Painted Wiper Arms
There was a bit of bubbling on the wiper arms, so decided to scrape, sand, prime and paint them. I've done this many times. I must have gotten a bad can of paint because it came out almost like bed liner (not as thick but splattery). I passed the heat gun over it at a good distance and it smoothed out to a really nice surface. I used satin paint and the end effect is really awesome. It has a very, very subtle texture.
EDIT: Oh, yeah, before anyone asks (if they care), this time I painted them on the car. It's a lot of taping and papering but often easier than removing the wiper arms. ![]()
