Vinyl Paint

Post by torqued »

Whats the verdict on vinyl paint?
Does it stick to the vinyl and give a good look?

go to spray store get it made to match and they will sell you xylene which is the chemical ya have to clean it down with works really well if you ensure youve cleaned it thoroughly and the paint also has essential chemicals in it that the shit in a spray can that ya buy at shops we use it plenty at work to match vinyl to leather etc

not to bag out vht cos it is actually a good product but it is rather shiney finish even though it says satin ya can get low lustre black made up ready to spray at the store for about 50 a litre or something and then ya can put it in a decent gun and get a nice even finish as the can nozzles are pretty patchy

I found that rattle can spray was a bit shiney. It's not to bad on textured vinyl. BUt things like doorcards do get a bit of a gloss on.
