Is there a technique for painting the hood springs on my truck? They are off of the truck and cleaned up.

Don't put a lot of paint on them. Auto paint isn't designed to flex a lot and the thicker the coat the less it will flex before failing.

Great advice guys. I painted them last night using the floor jack trick and it worked great. I was careful not to put a lot of paint on them either.

thanks again!
