Painted Interior bits

[Whytes]

Just thought i show some pics of me interior as i just finished fitting it all back. I still need to do the gear knob insert, the bit at the bottom of the steering wheel (how does that come off ? pull harder? ) and the bit round the dials (got to take the dash off to get to that ?!?! oo might just leave that bit!!)

:lolup: Paint your own

Great job Whytes, what all did you use for the centre console?
I've got a few spares to paint when I get round to it myself

 

[Whytes]

For the centre console: Keyed up the surface with 180 git wet and dry, then a coat of polyprop primer, or plastic primer. A couple of thick coats of polyester spray filler to hide the pattern in the plastic, rubbed down between coats,320- 400 grit wet and dry. Then a thin coat of normal white primer just gave it a tickle with some 400-800 wet and dry. Then the colour base coat, then within an hour a coat of 2k clear top coat. leave for about 30 mins another coat of clear. leave to harden for a few days then polish !

 

[Tigger]

Lot of effort made it worthwhile then

 

[Whytes]

oh yeah! makes it a bit easyer when you can "borrow" some bits from work!!

Quality job, paintwork looks spotless, but I think it makes the interior look 'cheap'.

Tell Ali that :rasp: Would prefer a V6 one myself but I know they cost more than an arm and a leg because of Renault.
