So recently I received a few messages elsewhere on painting the interior with SEM Color Coat Spray Paint. They all asked me for a basic write up. So although I did get back to them on private message I would like to point them to my sig which will link to this page. Here it is...
For plastic:
-Use a 3m gray scuff pad. Make sure to use the gray one not the red!
-Scrub the part down with dawn soap and water using the scuff pad. Let it dry.
-Then get some wax and grease remover and wipe everything down with that two or three times. Let it dry.
-Get some bully dog adhesion promoter and spray that.
-Now while the adhesion promoter is still wet spray a LIGHT, kind of a mist, coat of the SEM on and leave it to dry for 10 minutes.
-Now spray several light coats with 5-10 minutes in between.
-When youve got about 4-5 coats on there do one last wet coat. DONT SPRAY IT TOO HEAVY OR IT'LL DRIP!
-Then just leave the part to sit for 24 hours.
This gave me best results. Also don't armor all or even clean it for at least a month.
For carpet:
Begin with using a good quality automotive carpet cleaner. Use as stated on the can and vacuum. Allow the carpet to fully dry. Using SEM color coat spray LIGHT coats brushing in between each layer with a stiff nylon brush. If you do not do the step of brushing in every direction possible then you will have a stiff and crunchy carpet.
I'll post a few pics when I do the center of my steering wheel
Thanks now I get to post the link to this in my sig!
