Re: Anyone painted their Wiper arms?
yupcan you get to a sandblaster anywhere, cause if you can it's a really easy job. but if not get all the old paint off sand on it a little w. some 300 grit or higher sand paper once all paint is removed. Make sure it's good and clean, clean w/ laquer thinner, it dries quickly w/ no residue. And if you want to spray paint them, put a good coat of primer on there and then i suggest using the engine paint cause the heat of the sun will not fade the color as bad over time. It'll look better longer, or just take em to a paint shop and let them mix a little paint w/ all the additives like hardner and let them clear them and they will really last, just depends on how much you want to spend but i don't think that a paint shop would charge too much to paint them.

Re: Anyone painted their Wiper arms?
I actually did mine... Didnt sand or anything, course mine were just faded a bit... I just took them out back, and hit them up with some krylon... That was about a yr ago, and they still look good... Hit my door trim up too (it was turning white from the yrs) and it still looks great...
