thanks anyways...I was noticing that they had primer that goes with it i thought this would help the paint stick better, how did you do it?

I just cleaned the surfaces good, then sprayed it. If I can get some pics tomorrow I will. Depends on the weather. It's under a cover right now.

I used Krylon's Fusion paint for plastic from Home Depot
to paint interior on resto I'm doing.

Satin Black or Semi-gloss turned out the best. Just the right amount of shine.
Looks good on plastics and on the vinyl dash pad.

Its really about prep work, A good sanding with 320, a good cleaning with some prep clean, and a couple coats of primer. sand the primer with 400, then clean again and paint.
