Tryna = 5 keystrokes. Trying to = 9 keystrokes. Unless you have Carpal Tunnel Syndrome, you're just being lazy. Fail.

In my civic someone painted it white but did a bad job and now its flaking off. I don't think they cleaned it first.

what I would recommend for you to do is to take the piece you want to paint out completely n go into a garage after that make sure to clean the part with Windex to remove the stains it has… then apply 2 or more coats of adhesion promoter which I only found at auto zone also buy some paint for plastic its sold at Wal-Mart or Auto Zone and buy some gloss so it will help your paint to last longer..

this is a look of a piece i painted from my car

How long has your interior been painted? I got a dash kit from ebay that was a ripoff and I'm thinking of painting. I'm hesitant because so many people are saying that it will look like crap in a couple of months. Is there something you're using that gives better results. Does your secret to sucess lay in the adhesion promoter?
