Default Dying or painting interior plastics

Has anyone here ever tried to dye or paint interior plastics.? I had camel interior with one terrible seat and door panel that was bad and ran across a nice set of light grey seats and have door panels also. Now I need to change the little bit of camel on the dash that if part of the dash thats not replacable easily.

Herbs Parts sells paint for older cars so they may have your color.

Doesn't Dupla-Color offer interior paints? Check your local parts store.

Use SEM products for refinishing interior parts. They make a lot of different products if you want rattle can or spray gun applications. Find a automotive paint supplier around you that carries it and they will help you chose the right products you need for your application. The key is in the prep work and adhesion promoters so don't skimp on that part before you finish coat. And yes i have used their products with great results.

Another vote for SEM. They have good and long lasting paint for the interior pieces.

Maybe you can wrap it (with vinyl wrap) or try plastidipping it?
