Anyone paint that part on the hatch thats a different shade than the body? Mine is horrible, Ive seen some do it with spray cans!? Does it even look that good in person? Anyone know the color code? Clear after?

Re: Trim paint
Was it satin black? Primer? Any wet sand prep?

Re: Trim paint
Took a light scotch pad to it first to roughy it up. Then laid 2-3 coats of satin black paint. Think it was Rust-Oleum last time I did it. Worked out great. Works awesome for the front wiper arms and lower cowl piece.

Re: Trim paint
After sanding with the scotch pad I'd wipe it down with a prepaint wipe of some sort

Yeah you want to try and degrease this area. Years of who knows what kind of wax, tree sap or whatever elements are in there.

Re: Trim paint
I have something that I use for powder coating that will take off everything. This spot has bugged me for far too long.
