Vinyl onto plastic

Post by FST4RD »

Was thinking in all my wisdom, instead of spray painting the porn star maroon interior black that i would get some black vinyl and adhes it to the plastic. I would do all the small things like the steering column and pillar covers, center consol and what not....
Only thing is i'm not sure what the best thing to adhes the vinyl to the plastic is... Anyone know whats the best and any other tips to do this??

:wtf: Why that way?

Vinyl paint in a pressure pack can. IMHO it's the only thing to use...
Reduce fuel costs by 15-20% & cut emissions by 1/3rd...
Increase engine performance & prolong engine life...
How?

It actually works pretty well, although I wouldn't do it on the steering column etc - you can also get thin felt that most newer cars have these days which is good for doing all that trim between the roof and the seats.

Contact adhesive is what you need - it's pretty easy to do, but you have to make sure you stretch it all properly so that you don't get wrinkles in it.
