im going to risk it on ze bimmer. im wanting all the grey doorcards and bits black and also might try the sprayed carpet technique a few of you have done on the novas. i can see me failing lol

anyway, do i have to use the same technique as spraying panels. ie, sand prime and spray? or am i just spraying onto the cards?

and it might sound like a bodge to you but once iv finished its going to look ace imo so will be worth trying.

Plastic primer FTW IMO. Spray will just flake off after a while and look naff.

Oooh, I've sprayed my interior panels in the Nova black. I just cleaned them thoroughly with degreaser, let the fumes evaporate then went in for the kill. Just remember, less is more- I didn't want mine shiney so had to be very careful.

im just wanting to spray it matt black. think il try sanding it and then using some plastic primer then.

and i might just get a black carpet for it but spray the parcel shelf and other little bits.
