Stripped and repainted the '59 tag.
Alabama lets you use a matching year tag as your permanant tag.
Mine was getting rusty, so decided to try a resoration myself.
Etching primer after about 4 strip applications, tougher than you would think.
First attemp to roll on letter paint was a disaster... I pressed too hard.
Strip and reprimer...
This time I blotted the roller after brushing on a coat...
Very light rolling did the trick.
After a few touch up areas... a clear coat was applied.
Wait until it drys before clear coat, or it will make color run a little.
Roller is just what you think, a kids tube float and a breaker bar as the axle.
