My painter Shawn just started re-doing his interior in his 53 Belair.
The seating and interior in it were RED. Yeah! Gross as balls. He bought a few cans of grey interior dye and went to town. You should see how great it looks now. I swear, they look like they were meant to look like that. He told me that the dye comes in all shades so black shouldn't be too hard to find. Take your time and do it in a confined area with lots of lighting so that you can keep an eye on it all. Great luck to ya on this. It'll look killer. Sam - |

Is there some brand that's better? I know from experience that spray paint does not last..that's what i was worried about.

Shawn dyed his interiro from blood red to extremely light grey . . almost a whitish grey so I'm going to go with "yes" on this one!
You should be able to dye it lighter. |

after asking around some i think its basicaly like spray paint as far as putting it one.. if this is true then the prep work will be a major part of the work..
hkspowers.. i dnt know what kind of car you have but if the same car comes in grey interior you should try and find that.. that would probly save alot of time and hassle.. if the 96-00 civic had black interior i would just buy it rather than doing it myself.. |
