Oh yah, did you sand down the moldings before you painted them?
Yeah I sanded them down. 1 more clear coat would have been nice, it just seemed when I added more it would crack the paint... I will probably try and find a pair of white moldings, or some chrome (silver plastic) and paint those white. Probably be a lot easier since they don't warp with the change of seasons. But then there is the up keep so ones already white would be nice.
