hey im about to buy some white side skirts and i was wondering, if i wanted to paint it black, should i sand it down to the polyeurethane color n primer then paint or do i use paint stripper and strip it off then primer and paint? any help would be appreciated, thanks.

just sand it down with 80 grit, then 120, primer, sand with 400, spray the paint

Yeah, that sounds good. I did it with my front lip before like that also. You gotta sand it to give it some texture for the primer to "hold on to" I didn't sand all the paint down to the rubber though.

depends on the condition of the paint and also how much is on there. if theres a huge thick layer of paint you'll want to sand most of it down. and also if any of the paint is chipping off or lifting you'll want to take off as much as you can. other than that i say give it a good rough sand with some 120 and then primer paint and clear

just take your time with it and keep telling your self to go the extra mile because (cross your fingers here) it will be the only time you have to do this
