PAINTING INSTRUCTIONS – If Fender Flares are being painted; do not install edge extrusion until painting is complete. Prior to painting, c lean all surfaces to be painted using clean water and a mild detergent, do not use lacquer thinner or any solvent based products. Wipe completely dry. Best results will be achieved by wiping the areas to be painted with a tack rag just prior to painting. Most automotive paints can b e applied directly to the Fender Flares, however some may require a primer (check paint manufacturer specifications). Good adhesion will be achieved without sanding. Select a paint (and primer if necessary) that is suitable for rigid plastics PMMA (Acrylic). If using a paint system that requires baking, do not expose the product to temperatures above 70C (158F). Do not fit the extrusion or any of the hardware to the Fender Flares until the paint is completely dry.
Due to variations in installation, use, climate and other un-intended anomalies, there is potential for dirt or debris to become trapped between the fender flares and body panels. EGR recommends to the end user to check or clear the debris every few months to avoid any wear between t he fender flares and vehicles. EGR parts are designed to fit snugly to the sheet metal and provide the best defense against such events. However, should the parts not be installed correctly, or used in a manner not consistent with the intended design, EGR will not warrant any damage to the parts or the vehicle.
