Where does everyone go to get there dash paint and door panels. Do you take them to a shop and get the painted. Any ideas would be very helpful. Want to make the inside of my car fixed up.

After I got my car painted they gave me left over paint would car paint work for this or should I go buy a special type of paint. Sorry I'm just really not sure on this topic.

I did the interior pieces myself. Duplicolor and clearcoat worked just fine.

some paint will stick fine to plastic others wont stick for shit and make sure you do a good job preping before you paint

The new Krylon Fusion paint works really good. Doesn't require any prior preping or primer. Bonds to the plastic better than any other paint I have ever used. Also bonds to lots of plastic like materials. Try that first. Otherwise to get the best look try to buy an automotive paint gun. They paint the best and most evenly. Use a vinyl based paint. May be a little hard to find but works best on plastics and rubbers.
