Faded t-tops
so I've been looking for an answer to this for a while and can't seem to find anything on it. the black (now grey) metal that makes up the t-top frame on my car is badly faded, is this able to be painted with regular car paint or is there something else that can be used? or am I just stuck with the faded frame?

I've used this for years, gives a nice finish.

Re: Faded t-tops
I've never been able to find the SEM brand, but I've used both Duplicolor Trim Black and Mar-Hyde Trim Black with good results. Also works great for exterior door handles and lock cylinders, t-top center bars, wiper arms, and the always-rusty rear hatch glass trim.
