Hi all
I was able to pick up a 110 Rhino roof rack this week for £80. No rust but the black has faded.

What do people suggest for.getting it refurbished. So I get it powder coated? Or rattle can it?

Cheers

As above but use a good quality primer and machine/tractor enamel applied with a Brush rather than rattle can. Otherwise it will be the same Again in 12 months time.

If the paint has faded as opposed to flaked or broken, could you rejuvenate it with something like T-cut or similar?

Only if it is a good quality powder coat. I dislike powder coating as a rule because most things that come powder coated it is such a cheap and poor quality job that it does more harm than good as it chips and water gets in behind it.
