Underhood cover
Has anyone painted or done anything to the material on the underside of the hood? I want to change the Chevy symbol to a different color. The material is black. What would I use to that, or is it a waste of time? I wold want to make sure it lasts.

What is auto air top? I don't paint cars. I know Rustoleum, Duplicolor, things like that.

Auto air is a water based automotive paint from createx. any automotive Urethane or lacquer will work. so Duplicolor is fine. If your using a base coat clear coat system like Duplicolor paint shop you will want to top with the clear to protect the base coat.

Quote:
By "underhood cover," are you referring to the hood insulation or the engine cover?
