Next week I am going to take this roof rack apart; I need to remove the plastic trim strips beneath it to repair the clear-coat on them.
While I have it off, I thought I would put some fresh paint on the aluminum bars. They are faded a bit, one or two chips but not much; I'll take the plastic end caps fully off and rubber inserts out and clean it well. They have a slightly rough texture to them, not smooth. Priorities are:
a) fade resistant
b) good chip resistance
I usually go w/Rustoleum but don't know if they have UV resistant black? Or what would be best for that.
