Hummer H2 For those who like a little more gleam to their Hummer, the H2 offers a similar rugged look as the H1, but as a lower cost, and with more added features, making it almost a massive luxury SUV.

Default Refreshing nerf bars and guards?

Does anyone know how to re-new/ rebrighten/ reblacken.... or whatever.... the powder coated parts on the H2.
I have rock sliders, the grill guards, the light guards.... all oem in the black powder type coating.
It is faded because of age and such.
Just would like to get it back to looking close to new, but without doing just a wipe down that would fade back in a few weeks
Thanks

Have them blasted and powdercoated again. Only sure fire way to know they are coated and won't go to hell a few weeks later.

The Nurf Bars and Wheel Carrier I did last year.

The old powder coated partswere blasted and re-coated and came out good except the ends of the mild steel tube that wraps around the front and rear, here the ends had rusted through. So to finish these I 3D printed some rubber push-fit stoppers at great expense.

The stainless bars have tapped inserts that had rusted solid and most of the bolts sheared-off. These were drilled-out and replaced with new clinch nuts.

Every nut, bolt and washer was replaced with A4 Stainless Steel, still look like new after 1 year.

Was worth it in the end

I have found that SEM Trim Black 39143 is the best match and finish to renew faded powder coating. The front and rear bumpers are different however. They are painted/powder coated with more of a blue/black finish.
