there's my painted windshield. you can't see it, but it has some texture to it... semi-cheap paint job from the previous owner. you can only see it if you're like me and stare at it... haha

Previous owner painted the windshield blue inside and out. Light metallic sparkle to it, probably auto paint. Many of the bits that weren't blue originally are now. Good thing I like blue!

(...and yes, before anyone asks, there's sliders on it now...)

did you give the mirrored look yourself by painting it black on inside blue on outside? or does it have something to do with the paint?
or is it not mirrored at all and im just seeing wrong from the picture?

I don't have any pics yet. I painted the lower portion of the windscreen with krylon fusion black. It came out great. For best results, paint the inside of the screen and don't use gloss - you'll get little bubbles. Wi'll post pics soon.

Does this procedure require any "prep" work besides cleaning, ie light sanding to promote adhesion or does the Krylon fusion not need this?
