Well, my key had been in a very sorry state lately.. So, i thought..why not refurb it myself??!
Here is what i've managed...Before - after pics
What do you think??
Rubbed the shell with sandpaper (not harsher than 180, i would recommend 240), then primed it.. Of course, i masked the key really well, as the little badge and the flash light hole.
I have to admit that masking the bagde and the light hole can be a real PITA...as can be the masking of the shell for the different colours..
But since you do the half one, you can use it as a guide for masking the other half.
May sound a bit !@#$ but definitely a diy job :thumbs:
Two coats of everything at least, including polishing
With some filler mixed up with hardener and then rubbed it with sandpaper
