i tried doing a search about this, but i didnt have to much luck, but im redoing my interior and i have Grey plastic, and wanted to paint/dye it black. is there any recomendations? i tryed washing it with a stiff bruch and using some krylon spray paint thats supose to bond to the plastic, but sofar its been a week on one pannel and its starting to chip and it hasnt even bee exposed to any weather. i thought that some show like Trucks! covered somethign like this but i didnt remeber what all was intailed with it.

 

In my S10 I used some plastic dye made by VHT. It is expensive, but well worth it IMO. It turned out great when I done it 4 years ago.

However, my truck is garage kept so it sees little sunlight. Since I dyed the interior I have put about 10k miles on it. The tops of the door panels and the arm rests (places that are rubbed frequently with my arms) the blue underneath the black is starting to come through.

Im going to look for black panels to replace them, but if I cannot find/afford them, I will just dye them again.

Hope this helps.

 

I believe there's products from "SEM" that involve a wash/solvent and spray paint that apparently works. Haven't used it myself though. If you do a google search you'll find some retailers and they sell on e-Bay as well.

 

vinyl/interior spray paint 6$a can sold at autozone or aap.. works excellent and holds up well. looks factory.. just make sure you clean the panels extremly well

 

You can also get some adhesion promoter made by Duplicolor or Bulldog. That stuff makes paint bond very well to almost anything. The prep work is the most important part of a good durable paintjob.

 

I cleaned mine really good with 'Mean Green', then I sprayed them with Duplicolor Adhesion Promoter, then I used SEM Colorcoat.

This worked fine for me.
