Flakey radio reception

Postby OregonPath » Sat Aug 10, 2019 2:07 pm

I have a 2011 LE and the paint used on the right rear window glass for the sat and fm radio antenna has flaked, been scrapped and other damages. The replacement glass is $225 plus install.

Is this paint the same as the heating elements on the rear window? Anyone ever do this before?

Thanks

In most cases, you can repair the antennae grid lines with the same conductive paint used for defroster grids.
