I just bought new armrests but they come in tan color. What (if any besides cleaning) prep work should be done to spray em gray? same for the glove box door too if it's different. Never done it before....thanks

Just using some interior spray in a rattlecan

Like you said man plenty of prep work and something like Bulldog adhesion/flex promoter to help the paint stick so it wont flake in time. Good luck

For the armrests you're going to have to use a vinyl dye or they'll crack and peel. SEM makes some good stuff. Be sure to use the adhesion promoter.

I used the vinyl dye on my old Nova and it lasted about 2 years before it flaked off.

hey get the vinyl dye.. i did mine and t works great. clean them very thoroughly then do dupli color prep spray, after that use their adhesion promoter. then use the vinyl dye works great man
