Sorry if this has been asked before but I was having trouble finding it. I've been looking for awhile now at painted interiors and I've seen plenty of pictures and think i finally decided on what colors to do and what parts to do. I was wondering if some people could tell what kind of paint to use. What brands and stuff and were could I find these paints at? Also what prep work would need to be done if any in order for it to look good. Will I have to primer it, or sand it, or anything of that sort?

i use dupli-color wheel paint, and topcoated with dupli-color wheel clearcoat.

you don't want to use anything really harsh to clean it because it could react with the plastic...i use diluted simple green and then tack cloth to remove any dust/debris.

i've never primed or sanded....and i've done it twice now with good results.

never painted anything besides plastic...if you were planning on painting vinyl (e.g. the door panels) you'll have to get some fancy paint that is flexible when it dries.
