I have a 96 GT with black interior and the door pannels and such have a light white color to them from fading ..I can use good interior shine products and get them looking pretty good but only for a couple of days..would back to black or something else work to give a longer lasting result?

SEM colorcoat if you think you are capable of painting.

Seems Like all the painted interior I see (at least door pannels) is always cracked and/or peeling and chipping off...how durable is this stuff..how expensive and how about prep time?

I've read on detailing forums that Meg's back to black is pretty good at restoring black trim/panels.

Try and dye it first, It won't crack.

ive had mine on for a little less than a year and it is holding up great. there may be 1 or 2 spots that have chipped due to me dropping my keys and scratching off the paint but overall id say its great.

to clean all the pieces i used prep-sol. it got all of the armorall/wax out of the pieces. i went over each piece a few times- so i guess it was pretty time consuming. but it was defeintly worth it. i also did a lot of my interior so of course the amount u will be dying will contribute to the amount of time it takes. check out page 2 of my cardomain site and you can see pictures.
