Hey! I found some white Cargo panels in decent shape...

[Mstng2]

I had to tell someone about this Irony... So like 70 impala I've been looking for white cargo panels for an ETERNITY and the other day I'm cruising a junk yard and I look at a really hammered II with A BLACK INTERIOR. Then I look closer and see a few scrapes on the cargo panels showing white underneath. Turns out somone had spray painted them black and it seems the black paint has preserved them! I'm hoping I can use a fine sandpaper and remove the black paint, restoring them to white. Anyone tried sandpaper on cargo panels?

Don't use sand paper unless you want a sanded smooth finish there is a texture you want to preserve. use chemicals and soft nylon bristles

Don't use anything with solvents that will eat or melt the plastic!
use something made from orange peels
NO ACETONE!!!!!

Use really fine grit sandpaper like 1500 it will not scratch away the texture. I did this to my interior and it looks like factory paint. Use Krylon Fusion paint for plastics......it is fantastic stuff.

They turned out quite nice, not perfect but good. I'll post some pics this weekend.
