Painted hardtop success!
Hi all 
Bought a jeep a few weeks ago I am very happy with but always planned to paint the hard top to black.......did it yesterday using a paint called Krylon fusion I've heard a lot of american jeep drivers use - great paint it turned out to be!
So thought I'd share a couple before and afters....

Looks great, might get inspired and refresh my faded black top. Have any good "how to's" you could link to?

Cheers! I have one I found before it was done......although all we did was - give it a wash, wiped it down with meth spirits,then taped off the windows and rest of the body. I know a lot of people would completely sand it down first, but the paint I used you don't need to do that unless you really want to, if it fades in a few months time I'm not too fussed it can just be re sprayed..it's for out bush anyway! Here is the link I found though! http://www.jeepforum.com/forum/f140/...rd-top-742127/
have fun

Looks great, can you get it in light metallic khaki?? 
I've had a lot of success with ESP (easy surface prep) when painting plastic or other smooth surfaces.
