werd! would go good with the black & red theme of the truck obviously.

 

I'd have to spray paint all my plastic or should I go get it done professionally?

 

its up to you, depends on the quality of the work you think you're gonna put into it.

 

Guess we'll see tomorrow. I don't think I need to prep the plastic pieces besides wash them down with all purpose cleaner to make sure there clean.

 

and if you're not sanding them, then it would be good to apply some adhesion promoter (but not necessary).

 

I just scuffed the plastic pieces with a red scotch pad. Cleaned them with some rubbing alcohol and then laid down some adhesion promoter and then Krylon fusion

 

What plastic pieces did you paint? Also, what's the point of adhesion promoter if Krylon Fusion is made for plastic?

 

I just painted the dash. I think adhesion promoter just helps it last longer but I'm not completely sure

 

Did you sand the dash down? Got any pictures? I'm testing Krylon Fusion Primer and Matte finish right now to see if I'm going to get that HD black look before I go out and buy more paint (I don't see a reason for primer, since Krylon Fusion for Plastic states no primer needed). I guess I need clear finish as well to protect from UV rays?

 

I didnt clear but I think it would be a good idea.
I just scuffed it up. No heavy sanding or anything like that

 

So you didn't smooth it out? It looks good. Is it Semi-Gloss?

How does this look?

 

I have had really great success with SEM products. They have multiple colors available in their vinyl paint line. Not only that, but they have another line made for upholstery and carpet that works great to touch up stains on seats and of course the carpeting.

Another product called Duplicolor works pretty well too.

I have found both at my local auto paint/body supply store and you can also get them online.

I have never tried the Krylon Fusion on my auto vinyl but you can't knock the results you have gotten...that looks really awesome! Nice job.

 

Did the center roof, put it together, and it started chipping in small pieces, guess I need to let it cure. So, I just did another coat to fix it up around 10pm tonight, and hopefully around 5am it'll be cured so I can put it back in my truck, let's just hope I didn't miss anything.

 

yes the fusion is made for plastics, the adhesion promoter is just a little backup. it'll help get down in the grooves and all since the surface isnt smooth

 

We'll see how it turns out tomorrow, I'm letting the pieces stay outside tonight and hopefully it cures by 5am.
