Can you use the 12 oz. cans? If you do not have an air compressor and spray gun, then that is probably your only choice. You said your bumper was "plastic", so I am assuming its fiberglass? If its fiberglass, then just give it a light sand, shoot some primer, and go to town! After this, You will need some clear to go over it. Like I said, this would be extremely easy with a spray gun, and an air compressor, but hey its still possible this way. OK, now with the metal parts. What kind of shape is the red paint in? If it is in pretty good condition, just get some high grit sandpaper(220) and sand down the clear coat until you start seeing the red bleed out in the water. When sanding, make sure to use a sanding block, plenty of water, and be even with your strokes, or you'll see it in the black paint. Now just follow the same intstructions as before. Primer, paint, and clear. When all done try to rub out the surface with some rubbing compound, because a buffer will be too much for the little clear that would be on there. Post some pictures of your progress if possible. Hope she gets painted soon!
