Painting a stripped interior

[Stanley]

Im going to be removing my interior in favour of bare metal, but as my car used to be blue, and is now orange, im going to have to paint the inside.

Whats the prefferred method?

Hammerite?

Sand/primer/paint?

Also, what colour you reckon?

Cheers.:thumb:

[lee-loon]

Paint it same colour as your car?

[Stanley]

Nahhhh!! Boring! lol

[napalm_27]

do the inside black

[Stanley]

Black was my first choice, but ive got a notion for white........

[vxr_racing_2008]

what about a flame red:d

[napalm_27]

white will get dirty easy
maybe white black checker inside :D

[lee-loon]

what ever you do don't use hamerite!

[Benn]

White will reflect the sun big time dude!

[mowgli]

think about wallpaper... it will tidy things up quite well and a nice dildo rail

[michael squeak]

plaster it and slap up a shandlier ;) bit of a ''dildo'' rail like mowgli said lmao lol and maybe some pictures on the wall ftw :thumb:

orr lime green ! might make you ill after a wile tho haa

[auzzy2000]

[mowgli]

Shagpile, no seriously matt black i did mine with hammerite and a brush, smooths out the brush marks by itself as it's sooooo thick.

no worries, only just noticed the huge puddle in the top pic on the back seats where the cover blew off. It took me about an hour and a half with one and a half medium sized pots of hammerite. And i did the roof the floor all up behind the dash and the rear seat benches.

Hammerite?????

sand it down propperly, prime it and sand some more, then paint and laquer. the finnish is 100x better and worth the effort.

space invaders on the floor or tetris (sp) ftw seen it in a mag somewhere carnt remeber where

I'd use paint if it's going to be anything other than black. I'd imagine you'd stand more chance of polishing up the inside if painted too. Depends on what finish your after i guess...?

[General Lee]

depends what sort of finish you want to be fair, i was track prepping mine out so just hammerited it, but if you want a show car paint it the same as you would outside.
