FMIC Screen Material???
Installed my FMIC today and would like to put a screen in front. Tried painting some galvanized screen last night but the paint doesn't stick very well. Definately not up to rocks/bugs etc. Any ideas?

What you want is a plasti-coat(sp?) product.

It's a spray paint that spits out a rubber paint used for things like screw driver handles and the like.

Worked for me... I just cleaned the grill with a wire brush and made sure there was no oil on it and sprayed away.

Whoops come to think of it, your paint was probably not sticking as it's not flexible... duh! Thats why the plasticoat stuff worked for me I think.
