930 tail screen restoration

[kilodawg]

Okay this isn't for the racers on the forum. More for the garage queen crowd.

One of the very few areas on my new 930S that needed attention was the screen mesh inside the rear tail. While the original satin black center of the wing was in excellent condition the flat dark gray mesh was looking a little tired with the metal silver shining through in many places.
I was thinking it would be difficult to match both the color and pure flat finish of the original paint. Turned out that I found an exact match with Rustoleum Dark Gray Auto Primer.

Sorry for the poor picture but I think you can tell the difference even with them.

Painting the screen isn't hard to just takes a lot of time and careful masking.

Heres a closeup of the difference.
