Buying special interior paint

[Chen]

I am gonna repaint my interior and I want to use something other than wal-mart spray paint in a rattle can. I use pneumatic spray guns at work and would like to use one to paint my interior. I want an anodized metallic red, like the duplicolor paint at wal-mart, but I want to use a spray gun. Where would I get the paint at? Kinda hard to load a gun from a spray can. Any help would be great. The color is not set in stone. My color scheme is red a black. All the pieces being painted are gonna be some shade of red.

Try an auto paint shop. I know the one near me sells paint specifically for interiors. It's more of a dye, it seems into the material more than paint. A friend of mine redid the inside of his car with it and it looked great.

Use SEM colorcoat or VHT vinyl dye to re-dye your interior...

what you want to do is go with the G-2 interior paint I personally used that and its pretty damn good www.g2usa.com good luck with that!!!

G-2 is overpriced...and basically the same thing as SEM. SEM is a proffesional company, they have been around for ages, and I've used their products many times. It's very good, and works very well. G-2 just basically made something that's basically the same, and then marketed it for consumers versus proffesionals...and then jacked the price up knowing the consumer would pay. AFter all, most consumers are unaware SEM colorcoat exsists, or where to find it. Make no mistake dthough, SEM is very goof

G-2 isn't bad, don't get me wrong, but for the price? Forget it, SEM is just as good, and at a much better price. If you want to pay for the G-2 though, have at it, but I'll contuine using SEM.

what are you planning on painting? if you are planning on painting vinyl then you want to use the SEM like said before, but if you are painting plastic then you want to use some good automotive paint. then you can make whatever color you want, but it does cost a hefty amount of money, but you get what you pay for. sem paint does not come in that many colors, but it does work very well if you use it as directed. I painted the bottom half of my dashboard, which is vinyl, and it has been perfect for more than a year. so depending on what you are painting, use that particular paint. hope it goes well, have fun and don't breath the paint in. good luck.
