I put this on the General discussion by mistake so here it is again in the paint section:
I got a used headlight door (the aluminum surround) for my 70 F350 to replace the one on it now as it is dinged badly.
I am going to paint the black surround before I put it on. What kind of black is it, gloss, satin, or flat?
thanks, Abe
