Hello all.

So the wipers are a bit tired and rusty, but not too bad.
I want to give them a new coat of paint.
Any suggestions on what I would need to do and what supply's I would need to buy?

Thanks!!

Sorry, forgot to mention.
It's the wiper arms!

a quick rub down with some fine sand paper and a few coats of matt black will sort them out. halfords and many other car parts suppliers will have them on the shelf.

Ok cool.
So I wouldn't need to prime them, then paint them?

halfords paint is good actually . but the amount it will cost for primer , black matt or whatever you might as well get some from a japanese car breakers or something ? saves you the hassle . youll need some rust treatment otherwise chances are it will come back through ?

you could prime them but you would be wasting your money. body panels yes wiper arms no

As above, paint straight on, but DO clean them first.

And use satin black, not matt black.
