Your using a Diff type of Sem black that I'm using, if thats it in the last pic?
"Landau Black" is what I've been using. $60 for a Case.
The Window Buttons and other little ***** I'm not so sure of yet.
I'm down to just the dash and door panels left in my car.
Having all the leather (seats,armrest,door armrests) Dye'd by my leather guy at the dealership.
can't wait.carpet I'm gonna try the RIT Dye and a Trash Can deal or garden sprayer.
Need more pic's

When I did my interior, I used Dupli-Color. It's not as good as SEMs, but it held up just fine. Even when I cleaned the inside after the fact. I guess it's all in your prep work.

Yes the prep is really the turning point. I first clean with a hot wet towel and after with leather plastic prep. When it's dry I put 2 coats of paint adhesif. Finally I paint with about 14 tinny coats.

Jeez. Mine covered Great in only like 4 coats.
At $70 a case I'm not doing 14 coats on 1 panel.I used 5 cans on everything but the door panels,dash and A-pillars.
I Cleaned all the panels,..then used a Magic Eraser on them again with soapy water solution.
the dash I was told to use 3M all purpose and really good lint Free Cloth to wipe so it doesn't show all the little tiny hairs that Get on it.
Still a long way from Putting the interior back together.
