Repainting your cars interior

[sparkybean]

Its been a fun day.



Working at a friends house, i was tasked with getting 30L of dulux. No problem, i thought. First issue once id bought the paint being a full boot, so onto the back seats went the paint.

Speedbump (taken quickly but not over the speed limit, officer) knocks the last of the rusty remains of the silencer off, and pours said paint everywhere. Seats, headrests, seatbelts, my hair, the lot. I have a bit of cleaning up aread of me...

Is it emulsion? If so, it ought to be water soluble. Get the Vax out!

[Shaw Tarse]

Must. Not

[Fartgalen]

Shenanigans.

Water soluble or not - that ain't all coming off anytime soon.

guffaw.

It's a shame you weren't tasked with getting some Tartan paint.
Would've saved a lot of messing about.

Dulux you say..

[Bungleaio]

Good luck with that mate, I wouldn't know how to go about getting that out.

The worst thing is that i will have the car listed for sale in a few weeks. Urm.. 'well used interior'?

Peugeot 106? I'd say its a mk1 from the colour, possibly an xsi from the seats.

That'll never come out, water based or not it'll be a nightmare to clean. But you'll get a whole new interior for not too much from a scrappy or ebay.

[Silent1]

You're going to have a lot of trouble getting that out i reckon.

[sparkybean]

Yup. Mk2 1.05. With its new white interior, and no exhaust. Its a beast!

[littleandy0410]

30L!?

[white90]

I would remove the seats and set to with the pressure washer on them.
