    Painting trim - HELP

    I want to paint my trim this weekend, and don't want to use vinyl tape. Just wondering what paint you guys think would be best for the job.

    Thanks!

    SEM trim paint is definitively the best, many people just buy whatever because that stuff's expensive.
    The first car I ever rode in was an e30

        SEM is nice, Duplicolor really isn't bad either though.

          If lucky, the E36 will die peacefully, in its natural habitat, and be given the prestigious honor of donating its parts to an E30

            Do yourself a favor and use 'Etched primer', followed by SEM Trim paint (i used Duplicolor Trim paint).

            The etched primer will keep the paint from chipping.

              make sure to get the trim nice and rough and as long as you don't go too thick in any one place duplicolor works great and lasts for a while. i went about a year and a half but now i need to redo it lol
