To Paint or Not to Paint
The following is a list of some Mustang parts that SHOULD NOT BE PAINTED. These parts should be removed from the car prior to painting, but if that is not possible, they should be carefully masked. These items were originally either natural finish metal, light phosphate coating, or cadmium plated finish. They may have rust on them which will need to be removed by using SOS pads, sand blasting, or redi-stripping. Once cleaned they may be coated with a clear lacquer(this is not permanent as rust will return after a couple of years), painted with a natural finish or cast iron paint, replaced or re-plated.
