HOW TO: Paint your interior

[my99cavy]

Looks really good Jay! Are you planning on painting any other parts?

The vents Silver and the door handel thing red and the thing around the power window buttons but thats about it im not gonna do them for awhile tho kinda sick of painting for a bit lol

[my99cavy]

haha sounds good I love painting though, I would do it everyday if I could

It's not the paint that gets to me, it's the SANDING. I literally sanded my finger print off, pretty cool if I didnt want to leave my print anywhere but it took like 2 weeks to get it back lol

^haha yeah sanding does suck but if you use a sanding block like I used, then its makes it a helluva lot easier on the hands and fingers.

I bought one and tried it but I didn't like it. I couldnt feel what I was sanding or how much I was sanding. And I didn't like how it couldn't bend very well on curves or corners.

I'm guessing you bought a square slash/rectangle one then?? You need to use the one that is curved on one side and flat on the other like I have

....I thought that curve was just for comfort for your palm

That may be just whats its for but I used it to sand also lol

[JaysZ24]

lol ya i used a plam sander to do most the big stuff on mine and then sanded by hand and wet sanded it a couple times to make it perfect

[my99cavy]

I also wet sanded a few times, couple on when sanding and then couple when I primed it.

On the second picture where it looks like there is a chip on the one piece thats just a glare from the camera.
