RE: {Chrysler 300} Door Handles Painted ?

The waxy tar sounds like the material Ziebart used for undercoating/corrosion prevention. As it would be a good idea to use this material on the back of chromed bumpers, perhaps the applier decided to so protect the handles. If thick waxy undercoating is found elsewhere, especially inside the door skins, it would not be too surprising to see the black waxy goop in many places.

Can't say for sure the handels on my 300G had a wax substance and black tar.

I have a bunch of door handles, including a couple NOS ones, and none of them have black paint. I did notice that most of the used ones are missing the little rubber bumper in there.

Happy New Year !!!

I have a question about my 300G outside door handles.
The car is in the paint shop to be painted. I have the door handles because I am cleaning the lock mechanisms and will install them in the New Replacement door handles.

I notice that on the old door handles the undersides are painted with what appears to be Flat Black paint. May I assume this is the way it came from the factory? I believe they are the door handles that are original to the car.
