Hi, I was just getting ready to paint some shit in my car today (following the guide in the FAQ forum), so i went to my dealer to see if he had some of the exact same colour as my bodywork, he started telling me no matter how good the job you do on the plastic, it will chip/peel within 3 months. How long has your interior lasted without touch ups?

Cheers

Don't paint sh*t in your car - thats disgusting.

As for interior parts, mine have been sprayed for 18months and are fine - priming and laquering makes them pretty robust. no flakes or fading with Vaux paint, but the first time i used cheapo halfords rubbish and it faded and flakes of where the plastic flexes. exterior paint cured this.

But painting shit & being in my car are my two favourite things, double the fun up.

Thanks for the reply, I think i'll have a go soon
