I've always wondered.....

I've been seeing "Spray on interior color", like you can practically spray paint your interior a diff. color. I was wondering if this stuff even works? lol.... Has any1 tried it before?? Just a question that I've always wanted to know haha.

i used to have an Alfa which i used the vinyl spray in once.
it looks trick for the first little while but then as the days go past its starts to crack and stuff and it looks **** when you try to repair it and stuff.

other things you can get are like adhesive carbon look-a-like stuff and other things.

in my recommendation, you'd be better retriming your car.
i dont rate the vinyl dye stuff.

you can buy it at walmart... you can do it, but if some gets scraped it looks ghetto... i wouldn't go that route. Or if you are going to paint just paint the interior plastic pieces.

only thing it will actually dye on is fabric (like seats and stuff)

and it makes fabric go really crusty
on vinyl and plastics its just like a paint

OMG, is this thread for real? maybe im not seeing the big picture. but are you asking if you can paint the interior a diff color with spray paint? if thats the case, then YES, alot of us have done it already, look at registries.
