View Full Version : Interior Paint
Hey guys... anyone know where i can get good interior paint from?? I need black and bright pink (probably have to get some made!!)
i've been told i should use vinyl dye.... anyone know if this is right?
or if there is a better type.... i'm doin the whole interior black... wiv pink vents! :D
Probably gonna be expensive and hard to source using special paint.
Can you not just use a few coats of plastic primer and then use halfords normal spray paint?
sounds hideous don't bother lol

1fast6 ur rite.... i can prime it in plastic primer then use a normal spray paint... as long as i coat it in clear lacquer.....
think i nearly got it sorted now! obviously proper paint wud b good tho!
i've tried foliatec and i can only find standard colours....
thing is me n scottie aint really got a clue how to get the steering wheel off wivout setting off the airbag! (although it didnt go off wen i had my crash almost head on at 40mph!)
Make sure you put some pics up when its done clio_babe.
Make sure you've got a pair of sunglasses to hand before you get in the car too :wink:
Theres 2 screws on back of steering wheel holding centre on, undo them and pull centre off gently, then unplug the airbag. Simple as that.
Nail Paint :wink:
Plastic paints should do the job though, think there is someone on Rsc who painted there interior might be worth finding out what she used.

To each his/her own, I say. Just make sure it's a quality job after you are done. Though, I don't think the plastic on these cars will look nice with any paint on them.
I'd have to disagree.... i think this interior looks wicked.... mine wud be similar only my vents would be pink! not silver!

that black interior minus the silver looks ok actually, makes it look a bit more modern
i do like that black int, is that done with the paint u want clio b?
i'm not sure wot paint they used for that interior.... i've pm'd them on their club site to find out...
i've been quoted £30 a litre for black interior spray... not bad! How much do u guys think i need to do the whole of my interior... 4 door cards... dash... all the side panels etc! Basically everything inside thats plastic!
Foliatech is a waste of money, far too expensive.
Esp roudnb teh heater vents normal aint wontr' work as its not flexable.
What you need is a plastic pr9imer and if you go to a paint factures you should be able to get paint with an addative in whihc makes it flexable, can't remember whats it called now tho
You can then atek you trim out and take it with the paint to a bodyshop and get them to spray it
the girl used foliatec.... i'm not usin that tho.... i'm gona get it from the paint company... its special interior paint and is £30 a litre... jus need to know how much i need! they r also making me up a pink!
