SEM Vinyl Dye....best stuff on the planet for interior trim parts. Prep by cleaning with alcohol and spray on. Holds up great, and use their chart to find the exact color you want. If you are trying to do black, get "Landau Black".

sem is the way to go, they also have some prep wash that you use before you spray. but paint is paint its never as good as the real thing

SEM!!! I used that paint and it sprayed to the last drop. Didn't skip, splatter, drip...nothing. I did get two bad cans of Low Luster Clear, but who the hell buys Low Luster Clear besides me??? They said the can had been sitting in the warehouse for years, and wondered what I was doing with it!! haha

I've wondered about that myself since they claim it bonds to plastics. The problem is that no matter how good the paint is, a scratch is going to show because the material underneath is a different color. I'm probably gonna use the Fusion on my Cherokee fenders because they're faded.

I'm thinking I'll try the Fusion stuff on Stinky, since it's got three or four different colors of interior pieces in there (blue, gray, brown, tan, etc.), and I'd like to make it all-black or at least mostly black to go with the black carpet. I'll letch'all know how it goes ... ummm ... whenever I get around to it...

you'll find it there you will also find the plastic prep, make sure you take the time and do all the prep processes and you'll be happy with the outcome. The poblem is that over all the years your interior has been plastered with silicon based cleaners so you need to make every measure to remove it. I would first get a bucket of hot water put some laundry detergent i there and scurb everythign down wiht that first. then use the plastic prep, then paint the panels. It worked well when I did it

the laundry detergent will dry it out and make it almost porus so it accepts the paint and sucks it in

I've seen/heard of acetone being a decent solution for prepping surfaces...

I used the fusion paint on my mirrors. It is holding up well so far. No fading or chips. Been on there for 2 years now.
