Interior Painting

So, like many of you have, I'm going to detail parts of my Xtreme in red. I'm doing the air vents, the cubby around the door handles, the bowtie in the steering wheel, the sunken letters in the front air dam (the ones that say S-10 Xtreme) and any bowtie on the outside of the truck. So, what paints do I use and how? Thanks a bunch

on the interior, i just used regular primer and model car paint (the lil can of spray paint........for the bowtie on the center cap.......scuff it up a lil ......the tape it off........i then used silver spray paint to match the rest of the rim and touch up paint (can be anywhere lilk pepboys or wal-mart) with the brush to fill in the indented part......i haven't done the front plate yet.....i was think bout takin it off and having a decal place make one that would fit inside the indented part....hope this helps some......there are a few more pics on the my page

Painting the Defroster

I'm finishing up my red interior painting (which is turning out quite nicely). The only things left to do are the defroster, the air vents facing the doors and the rings around the dash speakers. I really don't want to take the whole front dash apart, which I think is what's necessary for those parts to come off, but what have you guys done to get those? I think I'm just going to use car touchup paint with a small brush. What do you guys think?

someone mentioned they painted the interior with spray can model paint....is it the little cans they sell at walmart?? did u sand or prime at all before u painted?

 

[sweetbutxtreme]

when i did 'em, i let cleaned 'em with rubbing alcohol......then used regular primer.....put a couple of light coats........then i used that paint you can get in walmart (the model car kind)......just do more thin coats instead of few heavy coats

i personally don't like white on the inside.......if it's between black or white i would do black.....but that's bout the only color i could think about on tan.....or maybe a dark blue.....what color is the exterior?

 

[Danthemanxx]

exterior is white....all the interior is tan....i hate it
