Colour matching side grills

Do these come apart so you can color match the surrounds or do you have to mask off the mesh and cross bars when spraying?

Yes, seen the powerful uk clip explaining how to remove them but I was wondering if once the grills are off, you can take them apart.... surrounds, meshes and blades.... So I can paint them separately without having to rely on my poor masking up

Will the plastic parts need any primer or just a bloody good clean?

Sorry but you're going to have to be very basic with me.

So panel wipes are for degreasing. Got that. By Scotch you don't mean an aromatic beverage from the Highlands do you?
