OK, I'm not going to pile on the already tall heap of praise for this move.
It does raise a semi-serious question, though - how well does any paint stick and wear on an interior plastic panel ? You see those guys in that New York shop ("Ghetto Up my Whip", or whatever) giving plastic pieces the old rattle can treatment out in the parking lot right and left.
Does that permanently work, or do those interiors look like tumors a few weeks later ?
wondering
Doing some interiors already, they do stick.....as long as you do it right. You will have to use a very light plastic degreasers. Regular strong degreasers will eat up plastic like nothing. Then you have to put on a Adhesion promotor. It's very important if you want it to be durable. If not, any type of light scratching from your finger nails can occur very easily
I'm partial to the brand SEM for interior paint. It's good stuff.
I've used the sem products. But I use laquer thinner to clean the parts, rinse, adhesion promoter then sem vinyl dye but I would never do it to a new z. I'm sure it's been said but you just killed the resale on that car.
Does anyone relize that people get interiors sprayed in rebuilt model cars, that there are paints out there that are MADE to dye the carpet & plastic peices?
Once paint drys & airs out, there isnt a paint smell, common damn sence would tell you that, just like painting the walls in your house, "oh man dont do that because your house will forever smell like paint", same damn thing, my car doesnt smell of paint what so ever, I think its funny, probably some of you guys that are calling me rice, spent your money on wings or big spoilers for your Z, THAT is rice.
If you wanted your car painted a different color, would you call that rice?
The point is, I'm having it fixed soon, I didnt kill my interior, & when its over, its going to look great.

so you do admit you fuked up though?
It's not that it couldnt be done, but there was better ways to go about doing what you did...For one, it probably would have been smart to ask for suggestions here BEFORE taking spray paint to your interior. oh well, it's your car.

The guy made a mistake, no need to be an ******* about it. Ease up guys.
you know those car crash videos they show teens in high school as a deterrent to driving like an idiot(or drunk)?
that's the same point of this thread...the OP is a lost cause, but if we can make someone else(you for instance) think twice before they do something retarded to their Z then it's a success.
