Interior painting

Post by macemc86 »

heya guys, i painted a few bits of my interior.. cd player facia, door handles, and some buttons on the centre console.only a few things so as to not over do it....
all was going well.primed the plastic....painted it...then laquered it, however once laquered, the colour seemed to dull a bit, n im sure it hasnt turned out right.
anyone got any painting tips? maybe im using the wrong kind of laquer???

any help is greatly appreciated..
cheers!

you should just need to use a plastic primer, then a couple of coats of paint (best keep it thin) then a few coats of laquer!!
