LOL my old 88 Topaz my dad did that same trick with White Trimclad to the trunk, and fenders, and we ran out when it came time to do the hood as the hood came off a Silver Topaz, I just left the hood another colour lol....

but yeah this paint trick is so true, we also did this to my 82 Toyota tercel, but my dad used flat black, looked great and after using the trimclad the body stop rusting in the areas we used the paint as it has a anti-rust protection in the paint as well.
I was the only member on this board with a Yellow Focus Sedan, and a 2002+ Euro Facelift on a sedan.

thing is you want to get the right mixture like he says.

And hours, and hours of wet sanding, lots of it.

6-8 coats of paint, wet sanding between coats. Your arms will be pumped!!
