I bought a tan interior about 2 years ago and used Krylon Vinyl paint to bring it back to black. Normal prep in wash with degreaser and soap got it really clean. To this day it looks like the original black interior...except for the center pad between the seats.
That pad keeps fading back to tan. I've cleaned it and respray it every 3-4 months. It's too low for an arm rest so it's not sweaty palms syndrom. The paint does not chip off, it just fades into neverland. Suggestions on stopping the fade? Anyone experiencing this too? Thanks |

Thanks Not sure whats happening, but I know that acrylic paint, like the stuff sold in the craft section at Walmart usually clings very well to vinyl. Never tried it on interior stuff on a car, but I did paint a whole recliner with it once. Never peeled at all. |
