#29777, "Question on interior paint (newb)"


          

There is a lot of chipping and rough areas on my interior (97 rs).
Was thinking of touching it up but wasn't sure on what i need to get for it.
Is there any special procedure to painting the interior (dash and center console) surfaces? Certain products i should/shouldn't use? Any suggestions as to what would work best? And could i get it at local stores or would i have to order it? TIA and sry im such a newb emoji

well for products, I found nothing works better the SEM Vinyl paint. You can get it at Vinypro.com.

As far as prepping the surface I just cleaned it with alchol and sanded it down a little bit. Some people like to sand it alot.

Hmm, do you know the name of the gray inside of the eclipse? is it like a special gray? ALso would i be able to only do a few spots or would it be necessary to just paint the whole thing?
TIA emoji

do you want to just paint certain spots that are stained back to to stock looking gray. If so, it will be very hard to find a color that matches that exactly and even if you did, you would still be able to tell only that part has been paintined. I say paint the whole thing,
