The paint on my side view mirrors are faded. What paint should I use to restore them to their former glory. Thanks

Turtle wax and an old sock. Paint changes coler over time, due to the sun's UVA|UVB rays, usually darker. If you had them painted,there would be a noticible diffrence. Your best bet is to, use the Turtle wax and an old sock, method, to restore them to their former glorey.

Duplicolor semigloss black is a perfect match.

Unless you are going for 100% stock you have some freedom. Some people have painted them body color. Mine were baked as well, so I repainted them in satin.

I wouldn't recommend flat just because it would be harder to maintain and would probably fade faster, or stain easier.
