which side is witch they have a "A" and a "D"

 

D is Driver, A is Passenger.

 

thanks i appreciate it

 

Yep.. I'm spray painting mine right now.

 

Is it possible to remove the arms? I need to paint mine also.

 

I dont see where u can take them off. I need to repaint mines black also, its starting to peel off the reg paint.

 

at the end of the arm theres a little bubble if you will, you pop it off via butternife or whatever theres a 14mm bolt i believe you take it off and your arms just sittin there pull it off sand it down and get to the task, thanks by the way i was a little confused but i know you can put just one on there in a order and it gets the whole windshield, might not be from a maxima though, anyways thanks

 

um, i dont know if its like this, but my wipers are stuck. I unscrewed the 14mm bolt and they still wont pull out. helpo?

NVM, i found out u just have to rock it up and down. Painting is coming great!

 

Painting wiper arms. That's on my list of to do's. What grit sandpaper did you use? 2000? Also curious to know what kind of spray paint you're using. Anything in particular or just regular ole flat black from whomever?

Thanx for your insight

 

even though you werent referring to me, i washed mines down, let it dry in the sun, then sprayed Flat black from Rustelon at homedepot. 2 -3 coats of that and a gloss top coat. Looks brand new!

 

I didn't even sand them down since the paint didn't flake off. Just faded. If I had more time, I would of sand them down. It gets the surface smoother and the paint to stick better but I was satisified with my results.

As for paint, I used Semi-Gloss Rustelon(?). Picked up a can at Walmart for under $5.

3 coats later, looks just like new.

 

Thanks for your input gentlemen.

Reckon I'll go find some Rust-Oleum this weekend and have a go at it myself. Probably get the semi-gloss outright so as skip the final gloss app. Should look the same. Anyway.............

What grit sandpaper did you use aznprid?

 

he didnt sand em

 

I would say start with a 400 then work your way to 800 or 1000.

 

Does anyone have the one wiper arm mod done?

 

Please don't

 

Indeed he didn't. My bad. Reckon I was thinking chaz, but wrote azn. Whoopsie. Anyway......thanks for the inputs again and look forward to rockin my arms soon.

 

mines look beautiful. The best painting i've ever done. I should've taken before and afters. =(

Wash em, dry em, flat black with 2-3 coats, then clear gloss!

 

does any 1 know were i can find dat little round thing that holds the wipers in place ??? sorry i dont know wat its called

 

you can still take afters

 

what happended to your old ones? Wore the sockets out?

 

PICS as vtony suggested i could take afters! wont hurt to add pics? =)






they are perfect, i didnt want it too glossy so i chose flat black with clear gloss.
