Default painting interior?

hey guys im looking to repaint the interior on a 94 integra. dont feel like paying a shop to paint it cuz itd cost way too much.

basicaly the whole interior will be stripped and painted except for the dash.

im not a baller so i dont have a spray gun. i was just thinking of doing it in rustolem flat black. im thinking of doing the doors too on the inside where the door panels cover it.
what sand paper should i start with? any tips advice?

I wouldn't sand it at all. Try looking for a paint meant for the interior and use that. Different paints require different things so it may require you to scuff it up but sanding it would make it look crappy in the end.

Oh, when you mentioned the dash i assumed you were talking about the door pannels and things like that.

Spraying on metal is no biggie, just scuff the e-coat (dull color) and then it is ready to spray. You can scuff it with a scotch brite pad from the grocery store, they work great.
