What paint do you guys use to paint the interior trim pieces? I'm trying to get rid of the brown and make it a decent looking black. Not changing seats though.
Well there are a couple of way that you can paint the interior... You can Dye it or you can paint it like your talking bout. I painted mine Black and it turned out really well. I'm not completed with all the pieces yet but i took a couple of pics so you can see what it looks like... When i painted my interior, I just used Krylon Automotive and general use paint. Cost me bout $7 a can.... here are some pic of some of the pieces that i have done... http://i145.photobucket.com/albums/r225 ... ure037.jpg http://i145.photobucket.com/albums/r225 ... ure036.jpg http://i145.photobucket.com/albums/r225 ... ure035.jpg http://i145.photobucket.com/albums/r225 ... ure034.jpg http://i145.photobucket.com/albums/r225 ... ure033.jpg I will post some mor pics of the other piece that i have painted l8r tonight.....
That looks really good. I actually found the paint for plastic and bought it. I tested it on the little piece that pops out in front of the hand brake and it looks great. Hopefully it will turn out well. I still need a new dash though. Mine is cracked to hell and back. :x
Yea I am going to Dye my Dash instead of Painting like i did the other pieces of my interior, so hopefully it turns of just as good as the painted pieces did.... I think that i am going do the dye either tonight or tomorrow....... Wel i hope that Yours comes out just as good if not better then mine.... Post pics when you get the chance, as will i do the same lol
Haha :lol: It looks like I should be able to get the center console painted tonight. I will post pics when it is done.
well I Dyed my dash and the door panels black yesturday. Everything turned out awesome.... IT looks better then i thought that it was going to be.. well here are the pics of the finished product...... let me no what you think... The next thing that i am going to do is Black leather door inserts all the way around. then i am going to get my back seats reupholstered. and i am going to put racing seats in the front but i dont no what brand yet.
That looks awesome. What did you use to dye it? I have started painting some of my interior pieces as well and it is turning out great. I will have to post some pics of it later today.
I used this stuff called SEM Color Coat.. IT is a Dye in in a arysol can.. it woeks wonders as you can see from my pics above. When you get done it looks factory Dye-$12 ea. CrossFire wax and grease remover-$20
Where'd you get that, did you have to order it of the interweb? I painted the armrest lid to test the vinyl/fake leather with the paint and it is staying tacky. I don't know why the stickiness won't go away. I have a black armrest lid on the way so i didn't care about messing that up.
if your going to use PAINT, you need to use the right one for the material or it wont stick. Plastic, use Krylon fusion for plastics- available everyhwere, walmart, canadian tire vinyl(dash) use vinyl paint, you can get it at canadian tire, pepboys rubber- i use plasti dip, i guess you have something similar in the US
I ordered it from off the net.... It costed me 12 per can, which i bought 2 and then another 10 for shipping cause i did 3 day delivery, I ordered IT from. www.perfectfit.com, click on supplies, then click on vinyl and leather paints. finally click on the picture that says( SEM ColorCoat Paint Aerosol Cans) there you'll find all the colors of vinyl paints
