Don't know the answer to that one ... ask a local paint shop
or the supplier who sells the urethene.

Apparently there exists a 'flex agent' which, when added to paint,
makes it flexible enough to go over the plastic trim.

I suggest you buy a cheap 'how-to' bodyshop manual from your
local bookstore.  These books usually contain a generous dose
of basic info.  The info will probably be of higher quality than
that found on the net :-)
