Windshield wiper fade
Has anyone repainted their windshield wiper arms? The paint arms on mine are starting to fade and show rust. I'm thinking of spraying them this weekend just curious if anyone has done it. I'll take pictures too.

i did it, makes the car look a whole lot better. use some Mother's Back-to-Black on them to keep them nice after they are painted.

I did, but I used a flat black bbq grill paint. Seems to hold up to extreme condition of heat, wind, water.. Try it!

Flat or Semi-Gloss?
I bought Gloss, Flat, and Semi-Gloss... I think that it's really some blend of flat and semi-gloss... Perhaps a Satin Black? What does everyone else think?

I did mine before the lafayette meet with rustoleum black and they looked great at the time but are now already rusting again. I'll try the stove/ grill paint next time.

I forgot to mention that mine were not rusting yet,just faded. If you have access to a sandblaster it would be better to remove all of the rust first.

The rust is very little and I should be able to get it out with sandpaper. We'll see how it goes, thanks for the suggestions.
