I was thinking about doing this myself when I re-do my headliner. I would think you would just use the same paint as they used in the post about them painting their seats. I was gonna do mine Blue after I get my paintjob, but like a "candy" blue sort-of. I think you just get some kind pof Dupont paint, they explained all the paint in the seat painting article. Hope it helps!
Later

I just redid my headliner with actual headliner material and I used the vinyl dye to do the sunvisors and the sliding sunroof boards and it worked really good and looked just like the redone headliner. I used the duplicolor fabric and vinyl dye. But plasticote has some too I think. Hope this helps yah.

mines been done for 3 weeks with the duplicolor fabric and vinyl dye and its still going strong. Now regular paint will be tacky and will stay tacky in the heat.
