New Interior

[Sanelero]

Just semi-finished my door panels and have them back on, just needs a lil more touch up paint. Next are the pillars and the carpet when i get around to it :D!

[JLw7123]

looks good.

[adam337]

youll regret that when the paint starts peelin.. mr. oreo :p

[kwhauck]

not a fan at all, but props for taking the leap to do it yourself..

[2fst4u]

not my cup of tea. however, what did you use to do it....sems vinyl dye? elaborate. also, the speaker enclosure might look better in black as well. i know i kick mine sometimes, so white wouldn't work for me.

[lonnie]

It would probably look better with a better higher quality pic.

[cavaliers60]

Ugh!! Why did I not hear about this before you did it!!!!! You are REALLY going to regret it.... It's not going to last at all....

[JD1]

white= horrible to keep clean

But props on doing it.........lets get some more pics up.

[Sanelero]

Yeah it took a few days got to do some minor touch up sinced i unwrapped them. It looks pretty good for my first time painting haha.

I used the krylon Fusion paint for plastic to my surprise it actually works pretty good, I looked around the forums seen alot of people hate to paint interior but i think it will be some refreshing from the old interior, just have to finish the rest of it now.

Its all good once if it does i can always have it done professionally, just wanted to try out a new look myself since i seen everyone hates painting interiors, just a side note its funny you called me mr oreo i im a sales service rep. for Nabisco :P

[That01Olds]

I'm personally not a big fan of it, but still good work on doing it yourself.

[Sanelero]

Just a little more touch up on the doors and I should be good to go on to the other parts i want to paint. Sorry if the pic is not good i tried my best :p

[whiterider00]

looks ok. like others have said, the white is gonna get dirty really quick. and i would have left all the buttons unpainted. it looks kind of weird with EVERYTHING painted.

[pimpalero2003]

Peeling??? Lol dash has been painted oh for 4 years and it's white and no peeling!! Quess it's all in the prep work.

[JD1]

yea the buttons killed it......id keep the buttons black for the widows, locks etc....

Man just checked what you car looked like...should have gone with silver and black...

[Sanelero]

Yeah no peeling so far, i heard that krylon fusion holds up pretty well no stikyness or anything, as long as you clean the parts real good and sand it a little(optional) and add some clear coat your good.

Was going to go with the silver and black at first but changed my mind cause i didnt like the options krylon had more like a darker grey kind of thing, so i just went with the white :D!

Anyone have suggestions for some gauges? Want to take out the stock ones.

[PappaSmurf]

Leave the stock ones and throw in some white LEDS behind them.

LMAO! @ your avatar pappasmurf :P, sounds like a good idea with the LED, now have to see if i can find the how too, hopefully its not too much of a brainbuster for me.

Just find 194 LED bulbs. ;) you'll be good to go. If you want, I can do a how to. I'll be fixing my cluster tomorrow hopefully. I need to redo my cluster lights.

[pimpalero2003]

Fusion plz do not tell me you used that on the leather/vinyl

[zoL]

Looks a whole lot better in light than in that dark picture.

Please tell me you used dye

[Sanelero]

Yes that is dye

[cherrington17]

there is also a post as to how to change the bulbs in the switches. might give the doors a bit more contrast at night.

I was actually looking at those bulbs when i was taking the panels off, think i will get some leds for them. I think it was your post i seen with the lights in the switches?

[pimpalero2003]

Ok said fusion and scared the f out of me.

[bdyman]

i really dont like it, prep work is KEY to painting or interior painting, example im helping a friend do a replica bluesmobile, and he has a green interior, it has to be tan

we are using vht interior dye, first impression very impressed with the product and again prep work is the KEY, this is the correct way for painting interiors

wash the parts with hot soapy water
using ppg`s dx 330 and a red secuff pad scuff the panles, if the plastic still feels slick wash it again with hot soapy water
wipe with dx330, wipe off right away, apply adheshion promoter like bullydog, or sem, or ppgs dx801, it has to dry for 15-20 mins
then apply your paint in medium coats, to wet you will have bad results

its so simple alerodrime can do it
