Default Paint interior parts

So I already did some searching on the site and did get quite a few answers but I dont want to mess up my car so I wanna double check. Krylon paint is the best? How many people here have painter there interior pieces? Could you post pics and say the brand of the paint or if you did anything different to make it turn out the way it did. Thanks in advance

This is what i did with my interior



i just used i think the krylon fusion paint but i didnt use clear coat because i dont like the shiny look that the clear coat gave off when i tested it.

with those paints that bond with the plastic do they still require sanding? Both of those look great was the gauge cluster hard to get out to paint? Love the red Luke I want to do something similar with mine being that my car is red I love the red and black theme.

if your spraying right on to the vinyl get leather or vinyl paint.

if you want to clear coat it or have a nice hard shiny gloss get a can of adhesive spray, spray they desired area, then the color, then if needed, the clear

The gauge cluster was pretty easy to get to. Just remove the dash and you'll see some screws that hold the plastic covering on that covers the gauges.

I also sanded my vinyl parts before the primer. I'm not sure if it was necessary, but i did it just to be sure.
