Default Interior Dye and Do it your self Paint Job Interior Only

Okay well first Id like to thank you for reading this.

1. Im painting my interior black. Its blue right now. I remember in the FAQs about this dye that will change interior cloth material stuff. I cant remember for the life of me where that site is where they sell that stuff.

2. What type of paint would you guys recommend for doing the Dash board and plastics for the interior.

Ill be adding Tech info on a DIY in this thread over the next month or two.

Thanks for Reading.

you will find it hard to penetrate the bottom fibers of your carpet with a rattle can

might be easier to get a new carpet. and it would look much nicer

I would use the grey scuff pads I believe they are the finest but I could be wrong.Use the finer ones so that you can keep the texture on the plastic trim.I dyed my carpet with the dye sold in the supermarkets its called RIT just get a garbage can and fill it with water and pour like 4 of those in with a container of salt and let it sit for a while then just spray it down with a hose until all the excess dye is gone.The salt helps the dye do a better job on the carpet.
