Default H2 door panel plastic blemish

Hello hummer fanatics
I think this is very common issues on the dise door panel especially at the driver side, the paint on the plastic around the handle is blemished
is there any materials or type of paint that I can use to re coat?
I'm sure some of you have the same problem.
any idea?
Thank you

Blemished like how, any pics? You can repaint anything with proper prep and have it last. Whether it will match the other pieces is a different story.

mostly from constant rubbing or holding the door handle I think.

I had found a paint color that matched near perfect at one point. One of the Duplicolor automotive metallics at the auto part store but I forget which one it was. I'll try and remember to dig around and see if I still have the can. Regardless if you want it to last it takes proper prep work. Actual spraying the paint is the easy part, proper prep will take a good bit longer. Clean, clean, clean, sand, clean, spray with SEM plastic adhesion promoter then paint.

SEM is a top brand of automotive paints for multiple purposes. Their Color Coat paints are about as good as it gets but I'm not aware of one that is a metallic that would be a match for our dark metallic grey but their plastic prep and plastic adhesion promoters are still the optimal choice for the prep.

Adhesion promoter is a must for any plastic painting in my opinion. I used a lot of adhesion promoter on all my plastics when I Raptor Lined everything. It is cheap and worth it to ensure your work sticks....literally lol.
