has anyone ever painted the plastics inside their car i know duplicolor sells paint to do it but i was wondering how it turned out before i buy a can and try it

 

Don't do it, if you are going to paint have a body shop paint them or buy the right color of interior IMHO What color are you doing?

 

Yeah, I've heard that it chips real easy and will get on your cloths!

 

I painted mine...over a year ago and it still looks great. My car is for shows only...so the plastic is never touched. I could see how the paint wouldn't hold up with if the plastic was touched alot.

 

Now that my friend is the only acceptable exception

 

My dad painted the interior in his old truck and it did have a lot of chipping/peeling problems. Isn't there a dye you can spray on? I think it's a lot more durable.

 

Plasti-Kote makes "Vinyl Color" it works good if you have blue, red and black lol, that's the only colors I can find.
You can use it on plastic and carpet just follow the directions
!

BTW-- The red and black are an EXACT shade match for my '92...........

 

I wouldn't paint too many things if I were you. There's some great deals on ebay, look it up.

Of course, sickness is always an exception to the rules. He could probably re-write Newton's Laws of Motion if he wanted to.

 

I painted all my red plastic to black...only chips if you took a hammer to it...painted it all with Krylon Fusion. I definently recommend it as long as you do good preping and let it cure well. Even the door sils/kick panels that see feet all the time are perfectly fine on my car.

 

Forget all that crap you buy at walmart, get some SEM color coat. This stuff is very good! SEM Products / The Right Choice

 

I painted mine with the same stuff Sickness used. A year later, no chips. But again, my plastics never get touched either.

 

I too used the same stuff sickness used and its been about the same amount of time and the only prob I had was with a jack that scratched it.

 

I went the right route and purchased the right color OEM plastics, I can't complain.

 

I just redid my plastics and I used Dupli-Color Vinyl and Fabric Coating and I must say it worked perfect. Looks brand new.
