Paint interior parts and door panels
Re: Paint interior parts and door panels
My old project
viewtopic.php?f=28&t=16462
1) Clean the panel / plastic parts
2) Prep the panel (mask / apply adhesive promotor for extra sticky)
3) Paint with interior paint (ALWAYS paint the lighter color first -> then, darker color)
For plastic parts, I used duplicolor products. Available at any auto supply stores including Walmart.
I suggest NOT to sand the interior parts since it may lose the original pattern / texture of the parts.

Re: Paint interior parts and door panels
First link for repair kit looks very similar to the one that I used. Sorry but, my project was over 10 years ago.
Second link for the interior paint is exactly the same one that I posted in my initial post.
Very great product that I even paint my dash long time ago.
This dash used to be BLUE that I painted to BLACK by using the duplicolor interior paint.
Just don't rush, 99% of the project is prep (cleaning / masking ). Good luck.

Re: Paint interior parts and door panels
I use the same paint to do my interior plastics. What adhesive do you use to make the paint stick better? The paint scratches off easily without it.

Painted all interior already How do you suggest I redo the dash? I found this video.. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ANE0dueAXSI&t=279s what do you think?
Re: Paint interior parts and door panels
I think he did really well on his project but, I think entire process was much easier if he remove the dash OUT from the car.
As you may know, there is a product called dash cap that is available for AE86.
I had this on my Corolla, too that if you are going to do this, I highly recommend that you remove the dash out from the car.
Good luck and let me know how it goes...

SEM makes very high quality interior paint for vinyl and plastics. I did all my plastics with it and you can see my process in the build log.

Re: Paint interior parts and door panels
Honestly, I don't think it's worth it to try and paint interior parts. Even with SEM "interior" paint, I still had issues. Also, even at it's best result, the paint would scratch and score very easily. I would recommend just using a quality satin or flat black (non-gloss) wrap. Then you can just pull it off and try another hue until you get it right
Success guardian... Successsssssss..
