interior plastic and carpet paint
What's a good interior plastic and carpet paint? After talking to Banker today and seeing how his carpet has come out, I've decided that this is something which I need to do as I really hate that horrible light grey which I currently have. I've heard halfrauds stuff is pretty rubbish so I'm staying away from that. So what works?
Matt, what was your kitt interior painted in? So I know to stay away from that one as well

Re: interior plastic and carpet paint
From experience, I used halfords flexible vinyl paint for some of my interior plastic and it worked fine! Was shiny and adhered well and still looks good now.

Re: interior plastic and carpet paint
That would be good. It seems like there's quite a few different ones around but I'd rather get one which I know works (and someone else has been the guinea pig for )
Can you remember the interior plastic paint you used as well? Or was that the halfrauds one?

Re: interior plastic and carpet paint
4 cans for 15 quid sounds good! How many did you need?

Re: interior plastic and carpet paint
Looks like theres only batches of 12 for the black one. But the back and bottom of my seats are carpet as well, so I can spray them with it as well.

Re: interior plastic and carpet paint
I've just sprayed the boot carpet. It's sitting in my garden at the moment looking a lot darker than it used to! Do I have to fix it with anything out wash it again before I put it back? It seems dry now but quite dusty.
